The end of an era...

okay, not really, but it is the end of football for this year! Brady had his last game this past Saturday. They ended the season with a win, and a great record 5-2. I was really hoping that Brady would not like football, but it didn't happen. At all. He loves it! It was more fun to watch then I thought. I know that will change as he gets older, and they start hitting harder. I have a video to put on here, but it's not cooperating this morning, so I'll keep working on that.
This is our first week with no practices since the beginning of August. I'm not sure what we're going to do with all our time. Brady is still doing archery through the school, but he just stays late one day a week, and there's no running involved!! Cross country and soccer are finished for Avery too. I really don't think we remember what life is like without all that going on. I'm very excited to be reminded though!
Here are just a few of the things I'm looking forward to...
  • family dinners at the table
  • not having to make sure uniforms are clean
  • not living in the van
  • not eating out as much
  • we can get all the chairs, blankets and equipment out of the back of the van
  • more relaxing afternoons/evenings
  • not having to worry about when homework is going to get done
  • we might actually have time to play outside together
  • not being so exhausted all the time from the constant running
  • not driving to the other side of town every day(50-60 minutes round trip)
  • saving on gas
  • knowing that everyone is in one place :)
