Football Week 3 - Elder

Game day! Noah was super excited because tonight would be his first Varsity start!
Love, love, love Friday team meals! We always have the best time! And I only have video, not a picture, but today we did our very first Football Moms Tik Tok - Bring the Boom!
Chillin' with the trainers.
I hate driving down to Elder and was not too happy because it should have been our year to play them at home. Yet, here we are, parking on the street in a sketch neighborhood, making our way to the campus with our Jersey Mike sandwiches in tow. Best sight, though, to see our boys right away.
So, so excitd for Noah to play!
Warm ups led by team captain, Aidan Weimer. Noah is on the very far left of the picture.
O line/D line.
Taking the field for his very first Varsity start!!
I love when I can catch a picture of Noah and Ash on the sideline together.
Love this picture!
And love our O line!
One of the coach's dad takes pictures and he got some great shots of Noah during the game.
Although we struggled to score, we had a tremendous first half and only trailed 13-6 at the half.
Time for the second half!
Always there, cheering on our No!
We played so hard but fell apart in the 4th quarter and ended up losing the game. Noah was super upset about the loss and texted me on the bus ride home, "Mom, I thought we had them."

Labor Day

We always have a fun time at the Clarks and our Labor Day celebration was no exception! The kids all invited friends over so it was one big chaotic pool day! Ash, Liv, and Kaleigh.
The wrestling started right away.
The cutest little swimmers in the pool!
Hangin' pool side while the craziness goes on.
David wasn't afraid to get in the mix of it.
The cheer off! It was so funny watching Noah, Wade, and Vince try to figure out how the girls were so successful in getting all the way up! The videos are hilarious!
The boys tried everything but the girls won hands down. They tried to enlist Kellan but that didn't work either.
My love.
Who knows what they're doing.
Xander called right during all the fun so got to say hello to his friends!
Time out for food!
And then it was back in for more pool fun! It got pretty crazy!
Someone dragged in the hose!
I didn't notice until posting this picture that Vince has Kellan pinned underwater. Oh dear!
Then the floatie war began!
These sweet girls stayed out of it all and just enjoyed their time together.
The older girls decided to take a break and pose for some pictures.
The boys continued fighting over the hose...
until they came up with the bright idea to "waterboard" each other. That fun activity occupied them for at least an hour.
Ash jumped back in to give it a whirl.
Wade won for longest time.
Love my Noah!
Back to squirting each other.
Such a fun afternoon spent with good friends! So grateful they have found each other!
