{1st annual virgo camp out}


Nanny L and Papa Bill planned a 1st annual Virgo camp out at their house which included tents and smores by the fire!  Nana Jean was in town too for a packed weekend of football, baseball, and birthday celebrations.  Fun was had by all! I tried to get a picture of the kids before we all went back to our everyday lives.  There was a lot of moaning and groaning about taking a group photo.  Notice Parker and Porter getting into it.......just separate already! Thanks Nanny L and Papa Bill for making a great memory for the kids and parents :)

{Thundering Mavs #45}


#45 has his brick wall up
INTERCEPTION

Okay, so which one of our kids likes doing up downs, running gassers, doing push ups, getting sweaty and dirty, and loves to hit hard?  That would be #45 on the Thundering Mavericks Junior Mighty Mite LCCPW team (yeah....Porter).  He is having a great time playing cornerback. 

A cornerback (CB) (also referred to as a corner) is a member of the defensive backfield or secondary in American and Canadian football.[1] Cornerbacks cover receivers, to defend against pass offenses and make tackles. Other members of the defensive backfield include the safeties and occasionally linebackers. The cornerback position requires speed and agility. A cornerback's skillset typically requires proficiency in anticipating the quarterback, backpedaling, executing single and zone coverage, disrupting pass routes, shedding blockers, and tackling.

The team is full of budding talent and we have the best coaches and parents :).  He had a nice interception in the last game against Murrietta.  In the previous game against Torrey Pines, he had an across the field tackle that kept the shut out.   Keep it up Port!  We love you and enjoy seeing you have fun.

{hudson's first day of preschool}

Hudson on his first day at preschool.  Wow, I can't believe it!  What is up with the pink Barbie lunch box, right?  He has been using Lyla's old preschool lunch box when he goes to the gym and loves it.  I think I need to take him to Target to pick out a new one though.  I overheard a little boy at school say, "look, he has a barbie lunch box!"  Hudson didn't hear him.
