The extra point wonder! ;)

After every touchdown in Pee Wee football, the standard next play is a two point conversion. In fact, I have never seen a field goal kicked all season long. A few weeks ago, Matthew's coaches started talking to him about field goals. Matthew has a very strong leg, and he was up for the challenge!

At the end of the season, the kids get the treat of playing at Floyd Casey stadium, where the Baylor Bears play. Matthew was in awe of being on, what he referred to as "hallowed ground". Thomas was a little less impressed. Sure enough, after Matthew's team scored a touch down, Matthew got his first opportunity to kick the extra point.....and he made it! We were so proud! He has loved every minute of season, and has played as many positions as you can think of, but he always did the kick offs. Here is a picture of a kick off.....
Such a fun season!
