Football's Not the Best

A while back, I picked Hayden up from preschool and as he got in the car he said; "Mom, Preschool's not the best." I laughed. What a nice way to say you don't like something. Since then the phrase has stuck. In our house, USUALLY, Football IS the best. As a family, we love football! We love to watch football, play football, even chat about football.

Mackay getting instructions from his coach as he goes in to play QB!! :)
BUT - this week "Football is NOT the Best!"

This Thursday, after Football practice, we planned to join my sister's family in Park City. We knew we would have to come home for his 10:30 am game on Saturday. But then we'd head back up for the rest of the long weekend. With it being UEA - maybe they would even cancel THURSDAY'S practice! Nope - we just aren't that lucky!! Practice this week:
Monday 5:15-7:15

THURSDAY 5:15-7:15

FRIDAY 5:15-7:15!!!!!

Game Saturday (9:30) 10:30 am. So this week -
"Football's NOT the Best!"

You can still squeeze in both, right?? It may be quite a bit of driving around, BUT....it would be worth it. I can volunteer to take Mackay to any practices, too, or pick him up and bring him to Park City. Don't give up on the idea of your getaway. It sounds too fun. (P.S. - I have something really fun for you for your birthday. If I don't see you this week, let's cross paths next week so I can give it to you!)

I am so happy to be taking a break from all of our extra activities. It's too busy. It's not the best:)
