Let's Get Ready for Some Football!

Football has started! It is a whole new world for us! Noah has one week of speed and agility training and this week was when the real hard stuff started. Noah had four two hour practices this week. Monday and Wednesday was practice in shorts, helmet and cleats. Thursday and Friday were full pads and they learned how to tackle. He is currently trying to be one of the quarter backs and is doing well. He is by far one of the smaller kids on the team. Height rise he is fine, but he is very skinny compared to the other kids. The first day of tackling he did well, but today was tough. He got frustrated, but hung in there and he got tackled pretty hard once. He comes home tired and sore. He also comes home hungry! He is really liking it right now and tonight he practiced on the high school field which he thought was cool. First game is September 1st. We will see how it goes! I don't have a picture of him in his full gear yet, but I will post one soon.

 Kyle likes to put on his pads, but once the helmet goes on he has a hard time staying on his feet since it is so heavy!
