Basketball Tournie

Justin's first game happened to be a tournament. Here is Justin dribbling the ball, looking for a pass, and rebounding. We finished with 5th place and had a great time. I had 6 points 11 rebounds the entire tournament.

MY DAD IS A MANIAC

Its New Years Eves Eve and Dad is just getting back from a ride with his new bike gear. Dad says hes like the the post man. Neither rain, nor wind, nor sleet, etc. will keep him off of the bike. He has a goal of 4000 miles on the bike for 2009! Lets see if he can keep it up!

Eggimann's Snowy Days

In case you didn't know, Oregon had about 11 inches of snow this year! We haven't had that much snow for 40 years. As you can see we had a lot of fun in the snow. Jake, Justin, and Ashley made four snowman as well.

Game #1 - Coaches Corner

As offensive coordinator, Jake runs a very quick game style with a no-huddle approach.

This is a rare moment when there is a time-out for a chance to get the boys together a true huddle. Because of the no-huddle approach, the plays happen very fast, and Jake must be ready with the next play immediately after the last play finishes. No time to think it over...as a result he is thinking on his toes and the after game video is helpful in really getting a look at what worked and what didn't.

Here the head coach, Andy Kahut and Jake confer on the best approach to a recent play.
Jake is good at bestowing many words of wisdom on the boys...here is Justin and another coach's son on the receiving end of that precious wisdom.
Another of the few rare moments when Jake is able to be out there giving hands on instruction.
The game ended in a win for our boys...31 to 14! 1st win of the season looks good for the offensive coordinator. Takes a bit of pressure off...but no rest for Jake...he is already planning how to fix the few offensive blunders for game #2 next Saturday. Stay tuned here for more updates on the progress of our season.

Battle Wounds

Justin got a major wound when playing a bit of football with a friend and at this game he broke it open again. He is VERY proud of this wound - he's hoping it will leave a scar so he can say, "Oh, that's an old football injury."

Game #1 vs South Barlow

This was our first official game of the season against a team from South Barlow which is in Gresham. We left our house at 11:30am to be at the field to practice by 1:00pm for a start time of 2:00pm.

Justin is on this end (#81) just before the team got down on the line to start the play. His position is Left-End. (Since this is Christy writing - I know that means he's on the left end and blocks - but I am slowing learning more all the time about football.) I should be an expert by the end of the season since we get every game on video for Jake and Justin to watch over and over and over again analyzing plays.
During a play and Justin is on this end - I believe this is one is called "16 Power".
Justin is on this end again...he is blocking #3 if you look closely.
Above Justin is blocking #48.

Ashley's Waterfall Pictures With Sara Savage

Sara is one of the Jr. High Staff members with me, and we went to Multnomah Falls and some of the falls around there and took pictures. We were very tired because just that moring at 2 AM got back from a Seattle Mariners Game. These are some of the wonderful and beautiful pictures we took.
