Football+Family+Food=FUN


Thursday night my friend Alison and I loaded up 5 car seats and 5 children under the age of 4 in my car and headed to the Georgia Dome in Atlanta! Nick's company Northwestern Mutual hosted a Family Fun night at the Georgia Dome and let me just tell you that it was a dream night for little boys, big boys, medium boys, tall boys and short boys!

Oh, and it was even a fun night for this little 5 month old squirt! A huge thanks to Gigi for the cute brother/sister matching outfits!
The boys did lots of....
THROWING THE FOOTBALL


BEING SILLY


TACKLING

MORE TACKLING

RUNNING

MORE RUNNING

SLIDING

AND PLAYING

Even Nick and his co-worker Tyler had some fun competing in this Tug-of-War game. Will was cheering hard for his daddy and both times he pulled out a win:)


The only time the boys stopped running and tackling all night was to eat some dinner.
It made me so happy to see Will get to be "all boy" and run around with Michael and William. I am thankful to see these sweet friendships developing among these boys. I pray they will be lasting, Christ-centered relationships that will continue to grow over the years.
Kate and Molly Jane were quite stimulated watching all the action from the stroller. We were asked many times if they were twins.
It was a very fun night! We figured after all that running around they would all fall asleep as soon as we got in the car but the 3 boys stayed up until we were about 15 minutes from home which was after 10:00.

Looks like it was a very fun evening! I'm glad the big boys and little ones enjoyed it as well as the females! How nice it was for NWM to host it too! Hugs to all my peeps! Grammy
