The Boys of Fall

Sorry Blog that I have been away for so long... I am not going to make any promises but I have so much to catch up on I have no idea where to start... so I am using my song inspiration to help me with my first post in what feels like forever...

....The Boys of Fall...Our Wittmer Coaches....
The Washington Huskies Football Season has officially begun! The weather is changing, our wardrobes have changed to lots of Orange & Black, La Pinata nights are back and The Wittmer Daycare is in full operation... here is a little peak...
...colton dancing with auntie nina, grandma has madison, uncle papa in the backround... 
...ashlyn with Hank Husky... 
it took a while for her to get used to them but with the persistence of Terri a Cheer Coach 
she was loving on him by the end of the game

A few years back {pre children}
... I would know which player whore which numbers ~ now I maybe know 4 ~ and one is my cousin's boyfriend {so does he even count}
... I would watch every play and have full conversations with Eric after the game and have a play by play Tiffany monday morning quarterback on what I think they should have done ~ now I'm lucky to see the sack or touchdown before the crowd claps
...but I cherish that this is a family event. This year Eric stepped down as the defensive coordinator but he is still helping out on game night...

it definitly pays to be the head coaches granddaughter... you can go wherever you want : )

I might sound like I am complaining but I am not. The games have just changed for me. Now I am all about getting the kids into there jerseys {#21 for Daddy & #12 for Papa}, putting cute ribbons in Ashlyn's hair, loading up the stroller, packing snacks, juice, water, milk, wipies, diapers, toys, blankets, extra clothes just incase,  and my camera of course!

Ashlyn showing me her Husky Paw Cupcake... 
seriously my kids do not normally eat this bad but everyone brings them goodies... yikes! 

I love capturing the memories that I hope the kids will cherish and remember forever. How they would climb into their great grandmothers arms and get a little candy. Or in Grandma's arms looking for Daddy up top... Isn't that picture priceless... 


Well the Huskies have played 3 games. We have gone to 2... it has been a rough start but we have not lost hope... two seasons ago we started 0-4 and had a hugely successful season! nothing makes a loss easier than your baby's smile and love!

3 generations... Daddy, Colton {not taking his eyes off this football, we actually brought it all the way home because we could not get it away from him without a fight} and Papa
