Latest updates from the land of milk and honey.

Well Jace finally had his first football game last Saturday. He had fun and played really well. He actually scored our only touchdown on an interception which he ran back for a touchdown. I will try to upload video of it eventually. I was really the only bright spot in the game as there was a lot of mental mistakes and listening mistakes. It was a definite learning experience for me. Jace's team was definitely the better team out there but just didn't execute the plays. There was about 4 different times they should have scored but made mental mistakes. Thank goodness we have two practices this week. The worst part of the whole loss was the team was the Patriots, and true to form, the coach whined and cried on every play to get penalties. Wow that was pretty sad to see a grown man doing that. We finally started up ward softball and had our first practice on Saturday afternoon. To give you an understanding of the commitment of our ward, we had 3 people show up to practice and that includes me. Last time we played as a ward, we were mercy ruled, I think we scored 1 run that game. Hopefully we will get more people to turn out for the next practice, because the first game is on Friday. After all that physical activity and fun on Saturday, both Kendra and myself got sick. I think it was from the scalping of the grass and the big storm that blew through in the middle of Jace's game. That was a lot of fun to try to throw a football in, 25-30 mph winds, I felt sorry for the kids as it was their first game. We both ended up with a really bad cough and stuffy/runny noses. She ended up sleeping in our bed that night, so needless to say both Laura and myself got very little to no sleep. Hopefully the next update will be more entertaining, until then.

Peace!
