USU Field Day










This day is mostly for Matthew. He's the one who loves all things sports. But the entire family enjoyed the fun activities (Olivia even won a special prize at the duck pond where she caught a rubber ducky with a star on it. Her prize: a giant bouncy ball full of glitter and a light up flasher inside. She calls it her crystal ball and says if it lights up when you bounce it, then your wish will come true! She keeps wishing for a baby sister!), watching the players practice, and getting to go down on the field with the football players! Matthew was in his element! Tossing around a football with the quarterbacks, kicking field goals, and throwing passes through hoops (which is his specialty!)and even the coaches were impressed with our three year olds accuracy. Spencer and Olivia enjoyed getting autographs and trying on the teams uniforms. It was a super hot day, record breaking even, in the high 90's without a cloud anywhere and the heat of the stadium reflecting on us, but we had a great day!

Did Matthew let Big Blue know he is next in line??? I have no doubt he was in his element! And the coaches seem to know talent when they see it! Maybe the scouts are staring younger these days! Keep your eye on this kid folks he had been pegged a star since the first time he touched a ball!
