Since I've blogged about Vicki's sports, I thought I'd give David some airtime. Yesterday was his team's last football game of the year. The boys played well but alas, they lost 14 -12 on missed extra points. It's the third time this year they lost on extra points! But it was a very good game that literally came down to the last play - where they came up just short of scoring the winning TD as time ran out (they were down to the 12 yard line).
Dave played a great game including stripping the ball from the runningback at their own 1 yard line to stop a drive (he played linebacker this game although he played a lot more free safety during the year). So, we are on to basketball season - and next year - freshman football at the high school!
Here are a few pics - of Dave about to make a tackle (number 81 in red in the center of the shot). of him also about to make a tackle and getting blocked in the back (so he got the tackle and some penalty yards), and his disappointed I-don't-want-my-picture-taken post game portrait.
Am going for treatment tomorrow...hope you like the pictures (and are patient with me braggin' on my boy!) BB

Hey Dave
It's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game. I saw you play and know you are great in your position. You just need a better team. Love, Nana
test, ignore
Go David ! great pictures and updates,
Marius
How can he be this big?!!!!????W
Thanks Brian. Brag away. We can't get enough of the kids!
Miss you. Hope to see you soon. Love, Carolyn
Brian, Thanks so much for all the very interesting blogs. I agree with your friend that said your blog has become a "must read."
We spent a few days in Las Vegas recently. Kathy Sheedy and I spent an afternoon in the hot tub with some frozen drinks interviewing a series of Canadians about how they like their healthcare system. One aunt and sister had nothing but good things to say. One couple were more in the middle, with good things and bad things to say. Our research is not as thorough as yours! I guess our technique needs work.
Love, Carolyn
Great seeing you guys this weekend!! And I'm pretty sure David was only faking his annoyance with the camera. I'm sure he was lovin' it.

Love the "disappointed I-don't-want-my-picture-taken post game portrait". Of course not because they lost, or because David was disappointed. But because I can vividly remember being having my "disappointed I-don't-want-my-picture-taken post game portrait"'s taken.
Thanks again for the updates.
We love you bragging about your boy. He deserves it. Go David. Can't wait to hear about basketball season.
