For the Love of the Game

Have you ever seen a cuter football player in your life? His smile says it all because Connor LOVES every single moment of playing this fun game. Last weeks game was cold and raining. This weeks game it was snowing and the wind was howling. Other kids could periodically be seen walking off the field, crying and climbing into their Mom's laps because they are so cold. Connor, on the other hand, just has this look on his face.

Today he had a bunch of quarterback sacks, tackles and blocks. Connor told me after the game that when he blocks and his team mate goes onto score that it's his touchdown too! I'm sure he heard that from his coach but I love that sense of teamwork he's learning.

Go, Connor Go! Can't wait for the years to come!

P.S. Steve, Mike and Brad-This brings back so many memories when you guys played at this age!
