Fall Football Fun

We spent a fun fall afternoon in our backyard playing football together. Here's Dad giving Emanuiel a few pointers on hiking the ball. Look at that technique!
It was definitely full contact. Here's Emanuiel taking Bubbie down. What a tackle!
Just a little loving after the game.
Even Flopsy wanted to get in on the fun.
Kicking back on an autumn afternoon. We had so much fun outside together. Then it was time for dinner. We hurried in the house to an array of "fridge fare" just a fancy word for leftovers!! Tonight the living was easy; the little ones dined on Parmesan noodles, steamed broccoli, and ham. Land and Paul whipped up their own dishes of Nachos and Toasted Ravioli, and me, I had delicious buttered noodles(how nutritious). It was worth it though to be able to spend extra time outside. Our time is often filled with busyness(schedules, homework, meetings,etc) so it's nice to be able to just drop everything and spend time together as a family. I know this is not always possible though. So no matter what is on your agenda for each day just remember this:

Whatever you do,
do it all for the glory of God.
1 Corinthians 10:31

Until Next time...................

There is nothing better than time outside with your family! Loved all your pictures- everyone looked like they were having a ball (football) :). Dinner sounded great too. You must have an easy going husband like me. Scott will pretty much eat whatever I have!!!
