Soccer and Football....all in one day

I should title this rain, rain go away!!!!!! It has been raining here for a week straight and there is a chance of rain everyday this week until Friday!


The rain did let up enough for Cal to get in his first soccer game. He is on the Stingray's this season. We still need a little help in the running and kicking department, but he was cute non the less.









We left the soccer game, drove through Starbucks and headed to Tuscaloosa for the Alabama game. They played Northern Texas and beat them 56 - 7. We only went to the second 1/2 since we had Brady. You will see the picture below of Cal eating cotton candy and Brady playing with Matt's iPhone. ****small plug for the iPhone...............they are fantastic and the boys love playing games on them. Matt loaded the same games on both of our phones so there is no fighting. The boys had a great time. Cal loves the whole "game day" atmosphere. He likes to say Roll Tide to people, but checks with them first to make sure they "go for Alabama". Brady kept saying, "This Alabama football????"









We left the game and went to Matt's grandmother's house. We watched football, ate and played at "Mimi's" until bedtime and planed to head home, but on the way out of town the boys spotted the Tuscaloosa Veteran's Memorial. It is a memorial for local vets. Matt's Grandfather Calhoun is listed on the Army Wall. There is a huge helicopter, plane, tank, jeep and several guns. Really pretty neat. We have promised to take them back next time.

I'm A Big Kid Now

Here is Cal on the first day of MMO. He was so excited to be starting a new year. He wanted a GI Joe lunchbox, so Brady inherited his old Spiderman lunchbox, which in Brady's eyes is AWESOME!!!!!! If you were wondering why there aren't any 1st day of school pictures of Brady.................he was not quite as excited about school as Cal was.




Here is something Brady would get in front of the camera for................he is wearing new superhero underwear, which he picked out at Target himself. I figure since it has been almost 2 weeks, it is safe to say we are potty trained!!!!!
