Austin played his first football game of the season today! It was played at the UNI Dome and it was so much fun to watch! My whole family was there to see it along with Austin's dad's whole family. I think it really meant a lot to Austin to have everybody there! Ethan and Kezzie really enjoyed watching it together. I don't think Ethan ever took his eyes off all the players! Even though they lost their game they played very well. They were playing against one of the Waverly teams. All of the Waverly teams have several extra players they can rotate in...being as small as we are we only have a couple extra guys on our team. It was a tough competition but in the end we lost. After a long talk with Austin, with many encouraging words, he was feeling much better about the loss (and the fact that he got tackled-who would have thought you get tackled in tackle football?). I wish losing wasn't so hard on kids. It's just a game, right?!!
