Alumni Fest 2011

We spent this Labor Day weekend at the Baylor Rugby Association's Alumni Festival.  Little Ted, in particular, really enjoyed himself because this was the first year that he could play with the other children there (last year, he was still learning how to walk!).  He had fun in the bounce house (after the older kids cleared out), and I had to drag him away - twice.  Even though he was too tired to bounce (or even sit up), he didn't want to leave.

When Little Ted wasn't in the bounce house, he made friends with the dogs at the event and played with Jaxson, the son of one of Ted's friends.  The two played nice - most of the time - but they did get into a rather comical spat over some toy cars.  I think that was the first time that I've seen Little Ted argue with a child his own age.

While I chased Little Ted around, his daddy coached the forwards in the Men's Rugby club and spent a little time on the field.  Can you find him in these photos?

We're using the last day of our long weekend to recover - Ted's nursing a few sore muscles, Little Ted is getting back into his routine, and I'm working to catch up on lost sleep.  All in all, these were small sacrifices to make to spend time with old friends.
