FUN FAMILY REUNION IN POCATELLO! (Brian's All-State Football Game)

We were constantly entertained by the babies "Brexton and Annie"! Here, Shaun is enjoying Brexton. Lots of smiles from Brexton for Carmen!
Annie and Shaun formed a sweet bond! Never a tiresome or dull moment!
The All-State Football game was exciting! Brian is at the end ready to line up with Team Idaho.
Brian as Defensive End (long white socks). First play that he was in, he sacked the quarterback. He finished the game with two sacks and several tackles! He was annouced as the Defensive Most Valuable Player of the game! Team Idaho (Brian's team) also beat Treasure Valley 38-6. Great Game!
Great new friends!
Proud family!
Pretty sweet trophy!
Brothers, Brian and Shaun "gotta hug"!
Turf burns were 'neosporined and bandaged' by Grandpa Hill!
Another fine family memory! Way to go, Brian, Defensive MVP! We are so proud of you!
