First Flag Football Game

We had two BIG football games last weekend: the Houston Texans home opener, and the Fiest Saints first flag football game. When I asked Connor which one he was more excited about, he said, "Both!" It was a choice he couldn't make, ha! Connor was so pumped about his first game. It couldn't get here soon enough. Even though it was an afternoon game, the weather was overcast and breezy so it turned out to be a great day. And it was the first time the boys were able to wear their jerseys, too. Connor had the hugest grin when he put his on. It's a little too big for him but he didn't mind.

Connor is #56 in honor of one of his favorite Texans, Brian Cushing.

The team looked great in their uniforms. It was so much fun to watch them play. All the parents of the kids are so supportive and really get into the action. We have 4 coaches, including Jeff, and they all do such a great job with the kids. And the team even has a cheerleading squad to cheer them on. They are so precious! The Saints didn't come out with a win at the game, but they had a great touchdown and looked like they had so much fun.

The Saints lined up to watch their cheerleaders perform during halftime.

What do the little sisters do during the games? Why, have a tea party, of course!

The following pics were captured by one of the other player's Mom, Stacy. Her husband is another coach on the team and she always gets great photos of the kids! I need to take notes from her!

Connor the starting Center in action. Love this!
