Touchdown Video

We've had some requests for this video, so here you go. Carson is #5 on the Cardinals (red) team.

Surprise!

I'm back already.

Don't get used to it.

I wouldn't want you to get spoiled.

I hate spoiled people.

Anyways..... Blogger is being stupid and not letting me position my pictures in the order I want so this is going to be all out of order.

I don't like things that are out of order. It makes me all...all...dumb feeling.

Anyways... (again) Carson had his football jamboree on Saturday. They played five mini games, and it was so fun! I think it was extra fun because Carson played running back about half the time and scored eight touchdowns! In this league they have a rule that kids over 90 pounds can't run with the ball so all the little squirts like Carson get to do it.

We did have to give him the talk tonight about humility. We reminded him that if it weren't for his teammates blocking all the other guys for him he wouldn't have been able to score at all or even gain any yards. In fact, he probably would have had a ride in his dad's ambulance if it weren't for his team. So hopefully that helps. We'll be watching closely. It probably doesn't help that his parents are so dang proud of him.

We gave ourselves the humility talk too.

Somehow this face isn't very intimidating, is it? You're looking at 68 pounds of....

my little bookie boo. (Someday he'll kill me for putting his nickname on here, but for now I think I'm safe. Please refer to the part where I tell you he's only 68 pounds.)

Also on Saturday we had Jantzen's first soccer game. She had a blast! It was kinda funny because I had to tell her she couldn't just go in the game whenever she wanted. The coach took her out for a couple of minutes and told her to rest. She took a drink and then said, "I'm ready to play some more." Then took off running onto the field! Too funny.
This is her celebration after her team scored.

Next up we have...(drumroll please) the first day of school!

**imagine me running in circles and screaming for joy**

I love school.

This is Jantzen and her friend Lilly in their kindergarten classroom. So cute! She loves school just as much as I do.

Keaton and Carson wouldn't let me take pictures of them in the classroom. Something about not being cool, blah blah blah.

So here's our token first-day-of-school-on-the-front-porch picture.

And I guess that's about it for now.

Ten-four good buddy.

Over and out.

Livin' it, not talkin' about it

That's right folks, I'm a terrible blogger and I've let you all down...again. But here's the deal. We're so busy living life that we (I) don't have time to talk about it. So this little journal of our life is...well...ummm...sucky.
Here's a quick rundown of the latest:
