Fall Weather and a new Football...

So what do a couple of cool guys do on a beautiful Fall afternoon with an early school dismissal?  That's right...we go buy a new football and have some fun in the sun.

I was given an Academy Gift Card by the extremely nice parents of my son's baseball team and decided to spring for Daniel's first real football.  It's the Pee Wee Version of "The Duke" and it's the perfect size for a 6 year old to get his hand around.  Of course I had to spring for the kicking tee as well which Daniel thinks is much more fun than throwing.  He's even left-footed just like Pop, his Grandfather.

From the looks of it, we don't have college football scholarship plans in the future, but just like a good dog, every boy needs a good football.  And for those of you that don't have the pleasure of living in the great state of Texas, this is what a drought ridden yard looks like!
