Carson's First Football Game

Saturday Carson had his very first flag football game. He is playing for the pre K/Kindergarten Highlanders team (which is the team that Sam grew up playing for...football traditions run deep here in Arlington...ha!). The team has been practicing since the end of August, so this game was long awaited! They don't keep score at this level, but according to Sam Carson's team won!
I had to miss out :( because Cade woke up running fever for the 2nd day in a row, but Sam took some pictures of our man on the field.

Having snacks after the game. Sam got a few of the boys on the field, but he forgot that my camera lens totally STINKS for shooting sports! The boys look like little ants in those distant shots! I think Sam is now convinced we need another lens for sporting events...YAY!

After the game Carson and I worked an afternoon shift at Ace Hardware selling stock shares. Stock shares are raffle tickets that you sell to help support the Arlington Optimist (the sports league in Arlington that Carson is playing for). The pre K/K team with the most stock shares sold gets to play a game at UTA stadium!!
It was H-O-T, but Car and I worked hard and we sold 40 tickets for his team!!
