Aubrey's Baptism

Aubrey looked absolutely beautiful - and that was before she was baptised! She melted her daddy's heart. But, that's kinda standard fare. Since she is my little guppy, she knew she would like to be in the water, so she stuck her little hand up in the air so that she could be baptised twice! OK, and Dad neglected to say "of" in "of the Holy Ghost" so either way we were going to do it again! The water was warm and Aubrey was very happy to be dunked twice! Dad didn't get a lot of practice baptizing over on his mission in Germany, so this was a new thing for him. Wade and Morgan were both able to make it, as was "grandpa Clark and grandma Jean".
Here are some pics.




Heartbreaking loss to PG

Our guys played very well, but we had a few breakdowns on defence that lead to touchdowns. Our D would string together three great plays and then have a brain fart and give up a big play. We lost 18-20. Joey only played about 1/2 of the plays because he's been having real issues with his achilles tendon. He came out in the first quarter and then didn't really play much until the 4th. Without him in the game, we kinda fall apart. On offense he is the 2 in 1-2 punch and without him in there, 1 gets pounded because they key on him. Our line was awful! Here's a good run by Joey. 8 hard-fought yards.

We play again on Tuesday night. I don't know if Joey will be able to play, but I hope so.

Joey as a Lindon Viking

This is a clip from the Lindon Vikings against the PG Vikings. Joey had several nice runs in this game. He plays wing/tail back. He's number 8 and both of these are out of the wing formation.

This one is an even better run, about 20 yrds with a good stiff arm and a great block, but it's pretty small! He got down to the 3 yard line but didn't make it in. :( Go Joey!

We play again tonight so I'll see if I can get some more footage. It's a lot of fun for me, and I think for Joey too. Curtis Brown is a friend of the other coach and so he came to help out and we kinda gave him the reigns. He revamped the offense and is doing a great job. The kids are loving it. IN case you didn't know, Curtis is the all-time leading rusher for BYU. Great guy.
