Another day in Paradise

Wow how times have flown by. The twins had their boys friends over last night. They had gone to the movies with Garret and Hunter. Garret drives and it just seems weird that the twins who are 14 years old are now going on dates with boys friends to the movies.  I guess it is time for this type of stuff they will be 15 next month.  ARRGGHHH!!!

Maddux got to play a little more Saturday in the his Football game with the Bellevue Steelers. He is getting much better I am trying not to be so hard on him as he is just learning how play.

Bellevue Steelers Jamboree

Maddux just played his first football game this morning in Mt Juliet.

No Air!

We now have 2 of the HVAC systems at our house not owrking.  Both went out last month just before our Disney trip so we decided Disney World over repairing the Air.  

Maddux Football

I am not sure Maddux is getting into playing football. I thought he was excited about playing before practice started, but it is 95 very hot. I would not be thrilled about practicng in this heat as well. He is still getting used to wearing the helmet, which does take time. I am sure he will be fine,  I have to be patient as he is one of the younger boys on the team but he is average size compared to the other boys on the team. I know he is strong enough. He has to overcome his fear on contact.

I love hitting someone with football pads on. There is nothing like it!! He is very hard headed like I was and doesn't take instruction very well. I am not sure how to teach Maddux to be aggressive and be tough.  The last two practice have been much better, as once he gets out there he seems to be ok now. He did get much better and seems to be enjoying it now.
