Jenae is so proud of her "ball" shirt. In fact, the last two weeks after the game she has slept in her blue shirt and then worn it all day Saturday too! I think she is proud to be a Blizzard!
Here are the boys in action. I need to get some better shots to show some perspective. Coming from Belton-a 5A school, to Winters-a 1A school, there are some slight differences in proportions. The bands look tiny, the stadium is small, and the sidelines aren't lined with reserve players. One thing I think is sweet is that now whenever we drive by the stadium, which is just down the street from our home, Jenae always says, "Go, Blue!"
The funniest thing so far this season has been Jenae's understanding of the team mascot. We are the Winters Blizzards. It's a horrible picture, but everyone always asks exactly what does that look like. Well, here it is:
Folks are always asking Jenae, "Where's the Blizzard?" "Do you see the Blizzard?" Come to find out, Jenae is only picking up on "Where's the Lizard?" "Do you see the Lizard?" I know this because she sits with me and asks "Gecko?" Even as I'm posting this, she saw the picture and said "gecko!" She must think we are all crazy though. She knows what a gecko is and what it looks like. She's got to wonder how this "blizzard" mascot resembles a gecko at all. I'm sure it's her first instance of wanting to roll her eyes and say, "Whatever!"
So, Go, Blue! Go, Geckos!

What a fun summer this has been! We've spent countless days at the pool. At the pool here, it only costs 50 cents for Jenae to get in...so we went...a lot! I am amazed at how bold she's become. At the beginning of the summer she was so clingy, couldn't float upright in her swim vest, but she loved the water. So we kept hitting the pool. It was on our sojourn trip with Mimommie (which I still haven't blogged about, I know) that I actually let go of her to see what would happen. She just took off! I laughed and she was so proud of herself and giggling that I bet she swallowed a gallon of water. Since that day there's been so stopping her. These pictures were from the last time we swam with the cousins.
