Clinton vs. Bettendorf

All of the freshman cheerleaders are required to sell programs at one varsity football game. Friday night was the night that Sarah was assigned to sell the programs. She wasn't happy because she couldn't help Dad for the first half of the Sophomore game. I know she wasn't thrilled about this, but for the people that like to have a program she provided a valuable service. She was able to rejoin the football team during the 3rd quarter. Shortly after getting on the field she was required to tape someone up since Dad was busy in the locker room with the varsity team. I am sure he feels better knowing that both Sarah and John are on the field when he has to be inside. Even though Clinton lost the game it was fun to see an old friend. The first High school trainer in Iowa used to work for Bettendorf and he was at the game. He was one of the reason I got into athletic training way back when. Clinton ended up losing the game to Bettendorf 35-14.

UnBeaten

I am proud to announce that after the first game of the season the River Kings football team is unbeaten. The varsity won their match 34-7 and the Sophomores won theirs 32-7. More importantly Sarah did a good job o managing all of her game night responsiblities. She needs to head to the locker room to fill glasses with gatorade with about 7 minutes left in the second quarter. She then needs to be out and join the band with 1 minute left. I kept watching for her to come back out and she never did. Believe me, I was getting a little worried that she had lost track of time, but that wasn't the case. When the band took to the field, it was easy to spot Sarah. She was the only one that wasn't wearing a uniform. I just looked for her white legs and knew exactly where she was. Sarah doesn't march during the pregame show as the director and her dad didn't want to confuse many people. When the band was playing the school song, I looked for Sarah and saw her doing the dance that the cheerleaders do for the school song. I purchased a new camera last fall after the football season, with better zoom. Tonight is the first time that I have been able to use it during a game. I am really happy with some of the shots that I was able to get. I even managed to get a few pictures of Kurt working that don't include his rear end. Most of the pictures of him at work are from the backside. So excited to actually showcase his front half in some scrapbook pictures. Tuesday night Sarah will cheer during the freshman game, so look for a few more pictures of her cheering.

Are you ready for some football

Having a hard time believing that the football season kicks off tomorrow night. Now that Sarah is in high school, she can officially be listed as a member of the varsity squad. She will also be preforming in first half time show. For years the girls have waited around to watch the marching band show. It is hard to believe that Sarah is now a member of this band. Stay tuned for pictures tomorrow night.

Dad with his girls

 
I took this picture as we were leaving the Arch. I then played around with the settings on Picasa and came up with this look. I am really happy with this. What do you think?

Finally some pictures of Kurt working that are actually decent. You can see what is happening in the picture and the lighting is okay. Gym pictures are so hard to take.

Dad's favorite way to spend a day off

I couldn't resist taking this picture. He looked so relaxed and peaceful.
