AJ and the Beavers

We stumbled upon a practice happening at Reser Stadium tonight. AJ and Ryan hung around afterward (I had to take a sleepy Lauren home), and AJ got his little football autographed and his picture taken with some of the players. Super exciting!

With awesome running back Jacquizz Rodgers.

And with Jacquizz's equally awesome brother, wide receiver James Rodgers.

Getting an autograph from tight end Joe Halahuni.

And with head coach Mike Riley, who Ryan says was unbelievably friendly and thanked them profusely for coming to watch the practice! What fun!

Halloween 2009

A wonderful time was had by all! It was especially fun to see Lauren really enjoying Halloween this year and not being scared of it. She dressed as her alter-ego, "Spiderman Boy." Aidan was officer Mayfield! In the morning, we walked down to the football stadium where there was a fun event, "Trick-or-Treat with the Beavers." All the student athletes had different booths with activities, giveaways and candy for the kids. It was also fun to walk through all the tailgating hoopla in advance of the football game vs. UCLA. Some of the tailgaters even brought candy for the kids! In the evening, we had pizza and went trick-or-treating in our neighborhood with our buddies Nick, Felice, Henry and Max. Happy November!
