Maybe....



This might be my favorite picture

ever taken of Jake.


My sweet,

little,

green eyed boy

is a tough,

sweaty,

football player...




It's a great picture,

I love it.


Pop Warner has been a huge

commitment for us as a family.


Starting with 5 days a week practices

in early August,

in 110 degree heat to

6:45 a.m. start times for Saturday game check ins.


But the biggest sacrifice has come from Jake himself.


He has given up play dates, sleep, and free time

all for his love of the game.


He's not the star Quarterback.

He's not even a starter. (Did I mention his team is 0-8?)

But he absolutely loves being a part of this team, his teammates and his coaches.


He leaves every game happy.


And I have developed a love of football....

Halloween

It is our family tradition that the Fisher family arrives, the kids get all dressed up, we have a great dinner, and we are off and running. Which means Jack and Grace make it to about 5 houses before they are done!

Our "Girl Pirate" & Ironman

Grace & Jake (the picture says it all)

After a marathon of trick or treating (hardly) Jack & Grace got into their matching pajamas courtesy of Auntie Serra!

Trying to be scary skeletons...
