Fear the Frogs

The Cottles were a part of the Windsor Forest Swim team this year--a great way to get 'em in the water--every day!  It was fun and they learned a lot.  Even Becca was a tadpole and loved the diving board.  The meets were competitive enough to be challenging and low key enough to be fun. Their t-shirts say Fear the Frogs--the team mascot--they won their division this year and will move up to the higher division next year.  Go Frogs!

That's Tig gliding in the water at the number one block--farthest from the camera
 
Those are Travis's feet!
 
 
The man with fast hands--Spencer Cottle
 
This was a Tig splash!
 
 
 
The cutest tadpole in the pool

Football Fever

This is the season for football!  And Pike has the fever--these are pictures from his first practice where he wowed them with his speed skills while his adoring fans looked on (his siblings, parents, g-parents, dog, cousins etc.,etc.,).  He really seems to like it and that's good cause his coaches are SERIOUS about this game. He plays for the Green Hornets--their t-shirts say "We bleed green and gold!" I think the kid's gonna be good.....go Pike!

 
 
Did you see that?  Awesome Catch!
 
 
 
Look at the sun catch that red head...1 and 2 and 3 and...
 
pushing the tackle dummy
 
 
Show me your mean face!
 
 
Mom and Lanian watching the show
 
 
Jordan, his most loyal fan and cutest critic!
 
 
I need six more water bottles--and I can do this!
 
Aidan can relax anywhere --he is the laid back one for sure
 
The Hornets play each other in the William and Mary stadium in September.  The Green play the Gold --We're excited to see 'em take the field...
 
WE BLEED GREEN AND GOLD
