Football

So this isn't about my girls... and I know we are all due for an update on how the weekend and road trip went. I promise I'll try to find some time this afternoon to check it out. For now I had to write a bit about one of my brothers. I took this picture of him the other night and I thought it embodied the typical Senior Football player. Guys... they don't smile, they don't look 'cute' or happy... they are supposed to look cool and macho ... and like a football player.

You probably can't tell by the picture. But he has a 'boot' on his foot from a football accident that occurred a few weeks back during football practice. It was his senior year and all of that hard work and devotion was shattered in one unfortunate event. So... while I was working on senior photos with him it was a given that we did a few football shots despite the fact he won't be able to play this year.

I still feel a little bad for him... it must be tough to have to sit out knowing that was your last year to play. But that's life... things happen. I've been impressed with his attitude about it. And boy I've learned... it's hard to do senior pictures when you are dealing with crutches. Things are just a lot more work.

Still I wanted to share the photo of him. Because I thought it embodied his spirit so well... and yes I do have ones of him smiling too :o)
