I asked the boys to give me a "mean" look, and this is what they gave me...
Then I asked them to put their helmets together, thinking I would get a nice cheek-to-cheek shot, and THIS is what they gave me...
The entire team got to run through this awesome sign the coach's wife made and bust it wide open - great fun!
Little Mama with her girlies...
Big Daddy with his girlies (minus me, since I took the picture)...
Coach Dad and Coach Uncle Brian with his boys...
The two nicest Mitey Mite boys on the team...
And my handsome boy, trying to smile through the pain. I didn't realize he had been injured in the last play of the game... He has a huge goose-egg and missing skin from his shin bone. He tried so hard not to cry (unlike some of the other boys on this team who were total crybabies all season long!). I let him take a nice, hot bath with Epsom salt when we got home, and that seemed to take most of the soreness right out. They didn't win their game, but they still got these super cool medals, and now Britt is ready for another season - just so he can earn another medal! It was an early morning game, but we totally lucked out on the weather and didn't even get so much as a drop of rain on our heads. Next weekend? We head to the famous Autzen Stadium for our last game! And guess what else starts this week? Volleyball!
