Let's go Vikings!

Malique decided he wants to play football... I was not on board at first and was really concerned about his leg. Needless to say him and Daddy won that battle. I am glad now that we decided to let him play. He is having a great time and that is all that really matters. Keelan isn't old enough to play this year but I am going to let him try it out next year. Hopefully it goes better than I expect it to go.
Malique is playing for the Joelton Vikings. He plays on a 7-8 team and also a 5-6 team because of his birthday or something. I don't know or really understand it too much since this is a different league than we are use to playing in. They have different rules, policies and ways of doing things. He played in his first game 2 weekends ago. The 5-6 won and the 7-8 lost pretty badly. They had a jamboree this past weekend that they also lost. They held the jamboree at their own park and weigh in took longer than expected. The game was set to start at 9:00am and eventhough they weren' ready to play they started he clock at 9:00am and they didn't stat playing until there was only 6:00 minutes left in the first half/quarter. So the other team scored at the last minute and won. Not a big deal though it was just a jamboree. They don't have a game this weekend because of Labor Day. I am pretty happy about that. At least I will have this one Saturday to sleep in. Because it will not happen for the next too months AND it just so happens to be on a long weekend! Hell Yeah!

 

This is my baby at his first practice this season :)
