I better hurry and update last week's games before the next ones start (Jake's game is in an hour). Love this picture of Bountiful's field. You can see the "B" on the mountain in the distance. Jake and the other officers slept on the field Thursday night and painted the field for Homecoming this weekend.
The varsity team is rolling, still undefeated. This week we beat Tooele 35-6. Evan (#52) played a lot and had a great time. After the game, someone told Craig that he saw Evan "tackle someone right out of their cleats". He's hoping for more this week. Next up: WX!Jake (#33) and the Bountiful sophomores rolled over the Tooele sophomores 69-0. It was over in the first five minutes. Jake played his usual: awesome. He played less this week because the coaches played the non-starters quite a bit.
Caroline is the glue that holds it all together. She's a great sport, supporting her brothers whenever she can. She and her friends love to get their faces painted at the games with Evan's number and the numbers of their other favorite players.
Sam's team played WX this week. It was a nail biter, Bountiful winning 14-13 with just a few minutes left. Sam (#25) had a great game. When the game was on the line, he perfectly recovered an on-sides kick, but his teammate was off-sides, so it was called back. He played great defense at cornerback, ran the ball a few times and caught a pass.
Isaac's little team beat Taylorsville. Isaac (#60) was blocking kids into next week. He's smart enough to get his hands up to deflect passes if he can't get to the quarterback in time. He also had a sack.

it was so much fun coming to the homecoming game and seeing evan play! and all your kids are so well liked with all their friends.
i could spot jake out for miles! ;-)
Evan had a GREAT game and our daughter said he looked so handsome at the dance the next night. We love Evan!
How fun to have so many games to go and watch. I would love that! Too bad we don't live closer. I love that Caroline will paint her face. Mack did that the other night for a big game at her school. I thought she looked crazy, but I am glad to hear your kid is doing it too. Wish them all luck for this weeks games. Wish we could be there.
We are excited to see you in a few weeks. It is around the corner. I am still looking for a dress for Mack, but hopefully we will find one soon.
It is good to be back blogging. I took the summer off and now I am playing catch up! (Not the best idea - but it was fun to just play with the kids.)
Remind Evan or Jake to line Mack up with some cool Mormon kids that are fun for some of their school dances. We would totally fly her up for the experience. It is not really something great that happens here. HAHA
