You know it’s spring football when….

It’s that time of year again….SPRING FOOTBALL!  Yes, yes, we don’t just play football in the fall here in Katy, Texas.  The boys spend about a month in the spring prepping the new team, finalizing positions and seeing where the fall season might take them.  We are a week down and I thought it might be cute to give you a little glimpse into our lives right now.

You know it’s spring football when:

  • Your husband fails to get home before 8:30….9:30….10pm during the week.
  • The dinner you have made and put in the microwave for your husband to have when he finally gets home never gets eaten, because….
  • When he finally comes home he goes straight to the shower, followed quickly by bed.
  • Your floors are covered in turf grass, ensuing weekly….bi-weekly vacuum duty by yours truly!
  • Your laundry basket is FULL of two colors: red and white.  And you not only must do one but TWO full loads of each color every week.
  • Your husbands eyes resemble raccoons from wearing sunglasses outside for extensive periods of time.
  • His skin is the color of night (you should see how white his feet are!)
  • You go through copious amounts of sunscreen.
  • When he is awake long enough to talk to you your conversations are mainly about sweeps, pitches, drops, coverages, goal line stances, etc
  • Your Friday nights are early nights because the alarm goes off at 6am on Saturday for scrimmages.

The list goes on and on.  Lisa, feel free to add at will!

We’ve been busy, but he loves every second of it and neither of us would change our lives for the world.  Mark your calendars for May 18th (Matty’s birthday) when spring ball comes to an end at the Red and White game.
