Football!

 

 Lane has wanted to play football for a couple years now, this year he was able to!  He's been at it for a few weeks now, but this was his first game.  He is the youngest on the team, he is in 3rd grade but he's playing with 4th, 5th and 6th graders.  His size fits in with all the other though.

 Lane is number 3, running into the action.

 I can tell he really likes his team and his team and coaches like him too.

The final score, 25-6.  Lane's team did awesome!  

Sadly, Lane had to have surgery this week.  We flew over to Anchorage on Wednesday and on Thursday he had a small hernia repaired.  We had had this planned since June but it was right in the middle of football season.  The season here is really short so by the time he can play again there will only be a week left.  But he's learned a lot and I think we've figured out that football is his sport!  His surgery went really smoothly and he's recovering great!
