Thunder 6A

Jake's Football team was able to go to Mesquite again this year and compete in the Utah Invitational Tournament the week before Thanksgiving.  It's always so much fun to hang out with all the boys and their families.  Jake has a pretty awesome team.  Whether they are winning or losing, they are always working hard and trying to be a better team.  He has been able to stay with the same coach for all 4 of the seasons that he's played tackle.  I'm not sure if he's willing to play football for anyone but Coach Briggs.  It is seeming more and more like lacrosse will take this boys heart, especially if his team falls apart.  Hopefully he has at least one more season in him!  I love watching Jake be passionate about teamwork and the friendships he has developed over the past 4 years.  


Line backer.  Jake's favorite place to be!




This is Jake's serious game face.  It's so cute!!!






It's funny to me that Jake is just an average size kid on his team...



This tournament is so weird.  What's with the GIANT trophies??? 


Dad is always at practices and games to be a support.  What would we do without him??

Nate missed last years football trip for a good friends birthday party (The Earl's know how to throw a crazy party!  You never want to pass one up if you get invited!)
But this year he got to come a long... 
This is what he looked like the ENTIRE time:


Allie was there too...it was a rough weekend for that girl!  She was really struggling with a lot of things that whole trip.  Good thing she's so dang cute!!!!
Love this little turkey!
