Brian went to a Football Camp at Mountain View High School. It was quite awkward to see my child wearing a Toro shirt. I ran into a kindred spirit, a pure Westwood Warrior, and she recommended a shirt burning party. Brian determined football is not in his blood. He tried to fly like superman into the tackle dummy. He managed to ram into the thing while doing a dive roll. He does not recommend this maneuver, nor is he interested in attending further football camps.
On a positive note, the children loved the Mt. View bleachers and wasted no time exploring. They climbed the metal "Web-like beams under the bleachers and happily journeyed to the top.
I think it is safe to say we could have climbed the bleachers for free and held on to our $25!
Much to my relief, my oldest son is not quite ready to join the ranks of the Toro, Dive Tackling, Football players. He complained of back pain for almost a day. As his mother I hope he may possibly have learned that even super heroes must exercise caution while leaping!
He may not be embracing his inner linebacker after this activity, but he certainly looked adorable trying. I hold this truth to be self evident!

Love that he is already complaining of back pain! :) And it's good to give them a taste of all that's out there anyway--football camp sounds like a nice, easy, cheaper way of doing it than enrolling him on a full-fledged football team. Glad the boys all enjoyed it!
I agree with what Lana said...
Go Warriors!
Oh my goodness-- everytime I see the boys they have grown a foot! Lincy isn't a baby anymore. That hair of his is sooo cute and he's looking more and more like his brother Griffy-boy. Brinny continues to be Mr. Unique-keep-the-heritage-going boy. He adds a cute compliment to those blue-eyed brothers.
Thanks for the post/update and the adventures of the Toro-for-a-day boy! Love you all, :) TuTu
My blood runs deep orange! Go Brian. That is funny, but not at all surprising, that he would rather fly like superman into things instead of play football. The two do not mix eh?
He must be a Westwood Warrior since he doesn't have football in his blood.
