Football season

Both my boys played Football...

Just like their daddy

 1977- article from Rochester post bulletin, Rick's senior year.

Here's my Gavin, just a little guy

Here's my Brice #59 ( I think he a freshman here)

They started in 4th grade and played up through high school

#51 my Gavin, a Senior in High school, 

about to take down the Austin QB

We loved watching them play...

...and we still do

Gavin still plays, no pads, no helmets

 but just as competitive!

His dad says he has a good "pocket sense",

 I think that means when he's got the ball he sees the whole picture 

and is able to scramble out of trouble

Out of the "pocket" looking for an open receiver

Half time talk, father and son

 My Son-in-love Chris is also on the team...that's him with the ball

 SWEET VICTORY

They won this one in overtime

Big guy goes soft

I miss this...

#51...that's my boy Gavin

~~~

but I still get a little of it....

Thank goodness for flag football :)

but the best part...

watching the tender side of this big guy....

he didnt even take time to remove his football gloves before he scooped her up at his game.
