And So It Starts

It is 6:20am as I starting typing this. Anthony's alarm is set to go off at 6:30am. Today is the beginning of Daily Doubles or "Hell Week." Football must really be worth it. He started weight training last April and has given up his summer for camps, weights, community service and for different practices. It's good because he feels ready for today. Some kids we know haven't been doing anything this summer and are getting nervous about today. Anthony says he is ready. Practice starts this morning at 7:30 to 10:00 and then again at 6:00pm until 8:00. In typical Eastern Oregon weather, it will be almost 100 today but by Wednesday it is supposed to be in the low 70's with rain.

His alarm is going off, so I need to go and make a breakfast that won't make him vomit on the field. Because that would be bad.
