Football and Cheer

On July 14th, Walker had his first

football practice!!!  This is his

first experience playing tackle football

and this program is serious business!

The first practice was a killer:(

Walker had never been through REAL

conditioning like this and I didn't

know how he was going to like it

after that first practice. 

He did awesome that night during

the practice...it was just afterwards

when he let it all out how hard it

was!!!  But he hung with it

and the next night, it was like he went

on a football high...he LOVED it!

Maybe it was knowing what it

was like and being over that part.

It's been football, football, football

ever since!!!  First week was shorts

and t-shirts (it is only about 100 degrees

while they practice!!!), the next week

helmets and the third week ~

full pads.  Still 100 degrees, too;(

 

And guess who is one of the

cheerleaders for Walker's TriCity

Panthers Team?!?

This girl...and she has cheer practices

during his practices!!!!!

Hudson has play ground practice

during their practices;)

Cheer!!!

This pains me to watch:(

Bear crawls and all sorts of other

sprints and drills. 

I.Would.DiE!

Football has also brought on the

need for lots of new equipment!!!!!!!!!

New pants, practice jersey, pads,

gloves, shoes, and even a fancy

BUT SAFE (I hope) helmet!!!!!!!!

Hadlee is SO over this!

She just wants some cheer shoes;)

AND this guy???

He just wanted these stickers for

his face...and to pretend like

he's going to football practice, too.

Water jug and all.  

So happy to be on the team with the

Moores which calls for more Haley time!!!  :)

The little sister cheerleaders...

Haley, Nadalie, Hadlee

The cheers are a RIOT!
Especially the "Boom Boom Power"...

Daddy has made it clear that Hadlee

can have the boom boom,

but NOT the power!!!!!!!!!!!

Apparently the boys CAN have the

BooM BooM PoWeR though...

because I got them on video doing

that very cheer!!!  And it's Priceless!

Go Panthers!!!!!!!!!!
