Safety First

Here Madison sits in the back of our car, with a bit of added safety. There's a play on words there if you know anything about football - which I don't. Actually, I know a bit: our Grid Iron series starts today, hence the leatherhead football helmet again. Also, college football began today in this area, so there's a great deal of enthusiasm about for the old pig skin.

Today we spent most of our time planning for the new series kick-off tomorrow. Pun intended. It'll be exciting for the kids, as our stage looks incredible, with a giant floating football, field goals, green carpet and large football helmets all over.

We dropped by the new house this morning to check it out: it looks wonderful. The pressure washing treatment on the front really helped it out quite a bit. Also, the driveway is perfectly white now. The house is coming along very nicely - it feels just like home.

One more note: literally! Mark your calendars, because today is the first day that Madison learned to whistle. It completely surprised Daddy when she came around the corner at the church, just whistling away. It wasn't any tune in particular, but it was impressive nonetheless. Daddy didn't learn to whistle until much, much later. Here she is, just barely four, and already whistling!
