Well almost, a win would have been icing on the cake but we lost by two touchdowns even though we scored a couple.

Tonight was our first youth Football contact with other kids who were not on our team.  
In the video Dakota is in his white game jersey and no. 76.  He also has a black and purple 76 jersey for home games.

These days Dakota is really liking the contact of American Football.

He is not a bad little runner either but punishing hits with his shoulder lowered rocks some worlds and are what he likes.  There is one hit I caught on video where coach let them go get a drink afterwards and he ran over with a huge grin on his face while saying "Dad, did you see that hit?  I knocked him over the pad!"  Be sure to see it at the 1:14 point in the clip. That's Dakota in the video in all Black with the white stripe around his waist.  This is too fun for any Dad not to be proud!

Me thinks I've got a player on my hands now, check out the video!

Just got a call from our pediatrician with news that a worker at two Grand Lake restaurants has Hepatitis A and this has prompted health officials to offer immunizations to people who ate at the restaurants in north-central Colorado.

Dakota and his first ever attempt at running with the ball in Football.  He said to me afterwards, "Dad, I like blocking better, you don't get hit as hard."  That's Dakota with the white stripe around his waist.

Pay attention, it happens quick!

This is a slideshow of our "Training Camp" for the DC Dolphin Football program.  The only things was it was in August not springtime.  Dakota said it was fun other than all the hitting!

Here is a video of one ski area making the most out of it's summertime operation and doing it right!
