Owen just finished his first season of flag football! In Texas they start playing really early!
We had a great experience with an awesome coach who was such a positive role model and gave equal playing time to all the boys on the team. For over 2 months we've been practicing and playing games and Owen had a blast! We also enjoyed the other families involved......couldn't have asked for a better introduction into the sport.
This series of pictures is from Owen's first touchdown!
The game of football is much more complicated (than soccer) at this age, because of all the different plays the boys had to learn. Sometimes Owen seemed a bit confused on offense, but he always knew exactly what to do on defense, and really enjoyed pulling those flags!
The Lions ended their season with 4 wins, 3 losses, and 1 tie. They also played in the winning bracket of the tournament and won the first game by beating the Cowboys, whom they had previously lost to. What an exciting game that was! Then they lost the second game of the tourney to the undefeated Saints, who I swear looked to be teenagers.

Here's a video of Owen's first touchdown. I'm not sure why there's a logo in the middle of the video, but you'll get the idea!
