Football Season--Preseason Game #3

I promise this isn't turning into a football blog, but since it's so hard for me to go back and catch up I'm attempting to stay current.

Adam and Tess joined us for this game since they live near Brighton High School (Amy was out of town and Bella and Megan had other plans), but I didn't get a shot of them.


Friday September 4th was our last preseason game against Brighton. They have a gorgeous stadium and it was a beautiful, breezy evening with a tiny hint of Fall in the air.


Landon lost his spot on the Offensive Line and got moved to Nose Guard on Defense. He didn't know how much he'd get to play this game, but ended up playing quite a bit.


It's still a bit surreal for me to see him out there.


He amped up his intensity (as a result of losing his spot) and played harder than usual.


He held his own.


It was an exciting game, but sadly we lost by one point because of a missed extra point that hit the uprights.

Does Whitney enjoy going to his games ? Luci always grumbles about Griffin's sports events but interestingly, when I tell her she can stay home she usually chooses to attend.

That's some gorgeous scenery at that game!

No, she doesn't enjoy going to the games. She says she doesn't like football, but I'm trying to help her catch the vision of the fun social aspects of it. I think she may be catching on to it at home games at least.

Ouch. Lost spot and lost game- sounds like a rough night. But good for Landon for stepping it up! And what a beautiful place to play! I haven't caught the vision of 3:30, sun blinding, Thursday games yet. I'll have to consider improving the social benefits of his games.
