Football has been an event already. We had the football combine on July 31st. I was unable to go but I heard that they did well. I stayed at home with Ashley and Hannah while the boys (including Ryan) went to the combine. The next day was the football draft. I have heard that it was a very heated meeting and was very long. For some reason both of my boys where selected to be on the advanced team with prior players. I was a little caught off guard at first when told that their practices would be in Utica. I thought about it over night and changed my mind that if there was a draft and they where drafted to a certain team I should let it be. Unfortunately the boys did have to change teams after I was told that another last minute change occurred and some of the Saturday morning games have been changed from the local LP field to Marseilles! This trip would take at least 30 minutes on a good day! We are not the most prompt family of getting out the door (working on that) especially when attempting to put on any sports gear (the shoes take at least 30 minutes alone). And to add Ashley has her first year of soccer on Saturday mornings! So this Utica team would just not work. We where switched to a Oglesby team but was not told which one! So we visited both teams and practices with both. The Tar Heals put the boys names on their roster, so that is the team we now claim!

All ready and dressed and then practice was cancelled due to weather. Which was fine with me. Was not looking forward to them wearing white pants in the mud. I know it will happen but I have yet been able to find any additional pairs in their size. I would love to find black ones.
