We made a trip to Spokane to take Eli to his first WSU Cougar football game during early September. It was great. Eli LOVED getting down on the field in Martin Stadium and playing a little football with Daddy after the Cougar Marching Band rehearsed in the morning. I have some GREAT pictures of the two of them running and playing, but will have to add them in another post, they're saved on the desktop upstairs. I will just keep you coming back for more as you impatiently wait for me to post them. Other than a massive victory for the Cougars, the heat was incredible. During the game it was a "balmy" 94 degrees. Yes, I was roasting to say the least. It was worth it seeing the joy on Eli's face though as he watched the CMB perform, the football players play and win, and getting to see Butch twice. Yes, we have raised a Coug! I'm sure this comes as a shock to you, right? Ok, maybe not.
Eli is back in soccer, too! His team is the Dragons are is run by Coach Daddy and Coach Scott. It is really fun watching them both out their on the field. It's amazing what a year will do in the realm of team sports. Last year Eli was all over, literally. This time around, even though he's still four and playing up with the big kids (he's in a 5/6 Pee Wee League) he is doing really well and keeping up with the others. I can only imagine what next year will bring. He loves getting his shin guards and soccer shoes on to head out to practice or games. Here is our little big man in action:
Kicking it in for the Dragons.
This was actually before the game during warm up, but he was pretty cute playing in the goal. This year, there are no goalies.
Eli and his best buddy Jack. They were both on the sidelines and this is how they chose to stand. Such great friends!
.....then Eli went for the wet Willie....
Hamming it up for the camera.
