Jason's Game

Jason's game was next.  It was a little less exciting.  They have a big team and they were subbing out the line a lot so he didn't get as much playing time as he has in the past. He's on the o-line and he is a force to be reckoned with.  I always look out there and see that he is the biggest kid out there by far and feel bad for the kids who have to go up against him.  Jason is number 97.

He wants to play defense and he works so hard in practice to earn a spot.  It's a huge team though, so he didn't get the chance to play d-line this game.  He was able to get a great tackle though!  The other team got a pick and Jason went after the guy and tackled him without any trouble at all.  It was pretty exciting to see.  I had my camera out but didn't take any pics until this one because I didn't even know what was going on.

  

Seriously, it's going to be hard getting past Jason.

The game felt long. We went all game with no one scoring.  Then, when there were 8 seconds left, our QB threw a long pass that hit its mark and the cute kid ran it in for a touchdown and a seriously last second win.  

They all walked away happy.

 Allie was there to cheer him on and tell him how cute he was in his uniform.  Looking at this picture, I think he's almost as tall as her! Let's say he's standing on a hill...

It's never going to be easy for me to watch my boys get tackled or be disappointed if they don't get the playing time they want or if they make mistakes.  It can be hard and it can be sad.  But they're learning great lessons along the way and I'm proud of them.  It's fun to see "Schwab" jerseys out there and know that those two handsome boys are mine. 

Here's to a few more months of our lives being governed by a little brown ball!
