Football Season (so far)

Sorry for the lack of posts, but I think this upcoming weekend will be the last of a 15 out of 17 weekends on the road stretch dating back to early August including 2 trips out of the country (more to come).  The good news is that we have lots of pics to post.  

These are from the first few football games.  Avery of course has been reading "The Wolfpacker" magazines very closely and has our football schedule memorized.  She knows the names and dates of all of our opponents, so not bringing her to a game is not an option.

She even made the highlights show.  You can see her reading the plaque in front of the fountain.  We are off to the side (I promise) waiting to go back to the tailgate, but our little girl loves her Wolfpack.

We even decided to take Carter to a game.  I am not sure if he was quite as stoked as Avery was for her first game (go back and take a look at these pics), but he had a great time.

Still working on the Wolfpack hand sign.
 Family at the game!

Carter loved the fireworks, the flyover, and the players running out of the tunnel; but spent most of the second half being a crazy little boy.  Climbing the seats, using a pom-pom to sweep, etc.
They did enjoy going down lower at the end of the game and a closer view.  Yes, Carter did try to climb over the wall and get onto the field, but we didn't get a picture.  


Avery of course has been to a few more games and always loves getting pictures with the cheerleaders.  However, when you ask; she would rather be in the band than a cheerleader.

 
 Meeting the players and Mr. Wuf!


Of course, being spoiled by Uncle David with funnel cakes.

Random September Stuff

I am not sure what weekend exactly this was, but Carter is starting to have birthday party invites.  Yay.....This one was at least at Monkey Joe's so he got to run around full speed jumping, climbing, and sliding.


 I was at a football game, so Avery got to come with him and help him climb up and off all the tall stuff.

Playing nicely together!

We also decided one day to climb Crowder's mountain.  Avery was really excited about it.
 Avery was running out on her own.  Laura was regretting not doing a few more exercises in the morning.  Carter climbed pretty much 80% of the mountain except for these stairs right at the end.

The view on the top was pretty awesome and there were some good rocks for the kids to climb on.

 We made it to the top!  It was however very stressful on the top as there were some sharp drop offs and Carter being Carter wanted to climb everything. 

Carter got a ride down for about the first half of the mountain with Laura over the steep parts.  However, as you can see in the second picture, he jogged down a good bit of the mountain.  He also did not take a nap that day....Thank goodness he is over that spell of fighting his naps.
