Itty Bitty Fun

In my spare time (not even funny, I won't even go there) I coach 3-4 year-old sports at the local rec. center in the mornings. It is really fun, and of course I get to coach with some of my favorite people, so that's an extra bonus. Matt thinks it's really funny that I try to teach preschoolers the rules of the games. I just this year learned what a 'down' was in football *although to be honest, I am still not sure I get that one*. During football season at Itty Bitty Ball I was so proud of myself that I knew what a field goal was, and was able to teach the kids. I came home and told Matt that he would have been so proud of me. He asked me to explain to him what I thought a field goal was, and I very proudly told him that it was the extra kick after a touchdown. Ooops, so football is not so much my thing, but I love having fun with the kids! Matt didn't get any photos of me coaching, but here are some fun pictures of Kinley:

Can you name that mascot? You could if you came to Itty Bitty Ball! It's Lenny The Lehi Legacy Center Lion!
Can you guess who's inside? That's right, yours truly! McKinley thought I was the best-est mom ever that day! :) Mason was scared and kept yelling at me to 'get out of Lenny' :)
I'm sure there were are few people with questions about Lenny during this photo ;)

Moral of the story: don't always assume the mascot is a male, it may just be a crossdressing lion ;)
