Fabulous Flag Football

Our 1st ever flag football season ended tonight. We are done with fall sports...yay!

Carson did really well. I was worried he wouldn't really get into the different plays, but he did! I swear, he is growing up faster than my brain can comprehend these days!


I mean, I SWEAR he grew those praying mantis arms overnight!


I also loved watching Sam grow into the "coach" role. He did AMAZING!


Here's some of Carson's friends from his team: Tanner and Josh


Their trophies are made of rubber so those little football figures are bendy. I made the arms go straight up as if they were saying "touchdown!". Carson moved them back down, and then looked at me like I was an idiot. Pssshhhhaw, I may not know football, but I know what the sign for 'touchdown' is! Besides, why am I arguing with these clowns?

I. Love. Flag. Football. Period. It's so fun to play. We did it for YW a couple of weeks ago. I still have a nasty bruise on my hip.

Your little praying mantis is getting big! He's a cutie.

he has creeped me out a few times twisting his arms in ways they shouldn't go! the games were fun to go to-- were we supposed to watch the boys play??

We're sad to see these games end. This is SO much more enjoyable to watch than regular football, as far as we're concerned! Carson is such a great kid--of course, stopping in mid game to say "Hi Grandma" wins him many, many points!
