Football, Fall 2013

It is football time again!


Porter giving Calvin a hug.  When they are not wrestling then they are best friends.

Porter and Calvin enjoying the games even if they get drenched with rain.

Roc is so excited to be playing football again. 

Roc playing right offensive tackle.
 
This year Roc played Pop Warner football for Grants Pass.  They were unable to get enough players to have a team in Rogue River so Grants Pass welcomed some of the Rogue River players.  Roc was number 83 for the Colts.  Roc had an amazing year.  He played right tackle on offense, outside and inside linebacker on defense.  After the jamboree Roc played every snap.  He played offense, defense and special teams.  He was the only player who never came out of the game. His team also got to play a game at Autzen stadium in Eugene.  It was an amazing experience and a great way to end the season.  This year we placed video of his games on YouTube.  In the videos we focused solely on Roc which allows you to see what he is doing even if the play is going the other direction.  If you want to see Roc's videos go to YouTube.com and type in "the riggles" in the search bar and it will take you to our channel and you can watch any game or one of the highlight videos that we created.

Hayden Family Vacation at the Coast, August 2013

The beach is always fun especially if your having fun with you cousins!

The kids play while the adults soak up the sun.

Emma is always so happy to see Aunt Nicole and Uncle Brian.

While vacationing with the family we took some time to play in the sand and enjoy the sun at one of Oregon's beaches.  The kids got to play with their Aunts, Uncles and cousins.  It was a good time for all. 

Random Pictures by Emma, August 2013



 
 
If you want to sleep in for another half hour even though you hear the kids (Emma) out in the front room, you may find a dozen or more random pictures on you camera next time you down load the memory card to you computer.  At least we know what she was watching.

Visiting the Redwoods, August 2014

 
Dave, Angie and family enjoying some drive thru!

Drive thru looked so good that we thought we should try it as well, you have to be careful, one wrong move and you can end up with some new decals on the side of the car.


Good thing Ryan had to work otherwise we would not of had enough room to stand side-by-side.


Amazing to think that his tree was 603 years old!

If you look close you can see an emu in the field, fun for the kids to see such a large bird.
 
 
Dave, Angie and Family came down to Rogue River on the way to the family vacation on the Oregon Coast.  We took advantage of the opportunity and made our way to visit the Redwoods.  It is always amazing to see the monstrous trees reaching high into the sky.  It is fun to visit but is even more fun when you get to visit it with family from out of town.

Calvin being Calvin, August 2013

 
Look how happy Calvin is with Roc's stocking cap on, even if it is 100 degrees outside.  Also if you look closely you will see multiple scraps on Calvin's face, for some reason we do not have the most graceful children when it comes to playing outside.
