It's Been Awhile
We have lots of stuff going on. I feel like it's been forever since I've blogged, but really it's only been 10 days! I have several things that I could jam into one long post, but I won't do that. Today, I'll just give a little update on Football. We're in week 5. Hank's had 2 scrimmages so far & Sunday is his first regular season game against the Spartans.
He's been practicing 3 times/week & he's slowly catching on. Practices are a little intense & they don't really mess around. They have several hitting drills/games that they play. He's not a great/aggressive hitter as of now & he doesn't really like that aspect of the game but we're hoping the longer he plays, the more he'll catch on. They also run a lot in practice, as in run up hills! The coaches definitely don't mess around. I can quote them saying to the boys, "You guys are getting tired, you're breathing hard & you're not in good enough shape! If you're not in good enough shape, we're gonna run that hill like the big boys!" And they did, they ran up that hill 5 times one night & 7 the next! What's surprising is that they all did great!
Their first scrimmage was called the Jamboree. It was also a weigh in for the entire league. It was awesome to watch my boy from the sideline! The whole team played both offense & defense and they played really well together.
He plays Sunday @ 11:00 & I'll have my Dixie shirt on, rooting for #56!
