Australian Rules Football

Tom has been on this kick (no pun intended) lately to have 'cultural' night. First, we watched a rugby game, then we watched an Australian Rules Football game, and he really wants us to see cricket next. The girls and I say, "Yippee. Sounds like oh-so-much fun." (All that is said in a monotone voice!) The boys weren't even too excited at first. Then, their 'boyness' kicked in and they thought the football thing was the greatest. So much so that they started playing it in our backyard (which is barely big enough for the 4 of them to share, let alone kick a football!!). The walls of our house and garage and the roof are all screaming at the boys to STOP hitting them (the parents of the boys are also scr...um, gently reminding them to quit hitting the house with the football because they could very easily break something that would cost a certain 4 boys quite a bit of money!) (Kelly, if you're reading this, that explanation was added for your benefit!)

Anyway, I think I'm getting bogged down in parentheses. I'm not sure where I am anymore. I did take some pictures of them playing last week--in the hot heat (can heat be cool?). Here they are :)
