Football, Football, Football!!!

My life revolves around football right now! Jax and Josh are both playing. Curtis has 3 of his boys playing too. We have practices every night and games on Sat. If this wasn't enough Mikey my brother is playing for Bingham this year. He is some sort of receiver and is being looked at by several colleges. So we have been trying to go to his games. To top it off Curtis gives new meaning to the word fanatic when it comes to BYU. So we have season tickets to all the BYU games...the only up side here is that he is a Legacy member which means we have the best seats and it comes with an amazing banquet before the game. We have a personal cooler under the seats with water and treats. At half time they have popcorn and hot dogs and at third quarter they bring us ice cream. When I explained to Josh that most people don't get all those things he asked, "Why do they go to the game then?"...I have to agree;) So here are some pictures of last weeks 2 big games. The Bingham game was the Centennial game. It was fun to see all the Cheerleaders in different uniforms. I saw a couple of my old uniforms. Mikey also informed me that the picture in the display case at the school to showcase the cheerleaders over the years was of the Bingham High Cheerleaders of 1995. I always new we had the best year;)

First Days of School!

Jacob started preschool at Learning Dynamics Preschool. He will be going 3 days a week for a little over 2 hours. He was so excited to be big like all his brothers. All the other kids were crying holding on to their moms. He ran past them all in to the room saying "Bye Mom". I asked if he would give me a hug. He ran back gave me a hug and a kiss and then ran back into the room with another "Bye Mom". No tears for me. I loved it though he is so cute. I will miss him. We are really close and he is one of my favorite people to be around.

How cute is this baby. It's not his first day of school but I cant resist him!
Jordy started Kindergarten. He is thrilled to be riding the bus with his brothers. He is a smart little boy. He is the oldest in his class. He is already six and he is a very large six year old. When he lines up for school he stands at least a head taller then everyone else. I promise that there was a few little girls that came up to his elbows. It's really funny. He is very well behaved in a structured setting. This is a relief to me. He likes to have a lot of attention at home...when there is competition around, like other brothers. Which as you can imagine with 5 to 9 boys running around is usually all the time:)
This makes 4 in school and 1 at home. I really only get like 1 hour 3 times a week with just Cameron so it's not quite as glorious as it sounds. It is a light at the end of the tunnel though. Not that Im wishing my life away though. I do love being a mom and having them around. It's just that I have been doing it for 11 years now and an afternoon shopping with no kids sounds like heaven right about now:)
