eau de boule de pied

My incoming freshman is on the JV football team.  I am extremely proud of him.  He loves it.  Great camaraderie!  This week they began what is called "Two-a-days", meaning they practice twice in the afternoon with a break in between. 

But, y'know, I do not believe anyone in the recent history of our family has ever smelt quite like this.


Also, I'm pretty sure
"Eau de Boule de Pied (Eau de Football)"
will never be one of Giorgio Armani or Pierre Cardin's best sellers.  But I could be wrong.

He's the 3rd string Center and 7th string Defensive Guard
(aka not much playing time this year if at all)

We are in luck...Rachel just made cheerleading. We are almost there...just a choir member and drama freak left.....any one, any one?

Is it just me or would either of you secretly like to play football too? I think it would be fun to get to hit people. Yes, you read what you read. Hit people. Only problem is I don't fancy being hit.
