Tim joins Sellwood's Jazz Band!

Tim tried out and was chosen to be one of the two drummers in Sellwood Middle School's Jazz Band.  He's pretty excited and we're proud of him.  He's the only sixth grader this year - the rest of the kids are 7th and 8th graders.

We'll keep folks posted of different gigs around town.

Cleveland is 2-0!

Joe played in his second football game today against Roosevelt High School.  Cleveland won 28-18.  Each game he's getting more playing time and is having fun trying out new positions and learning new plays.

In this photo he's looking down the line at the far side - #84.

He's also enjoying high school and the fact that they can have lunch off campus. 

Even if he doesn't have the ball hit him!

Last weekend I (Joe) played in my first football game for Cleveland, well it wasn't an actual game. You had half the field to play and you had 15 plays on offense and then played 15 plays on defense. Our first scrimmage was against the Wilson JV team. I didn't get any play time that game. We lost that scrimmage. It turned that my parents and brother were watching the wrong team for most of the scrimmage and that was because mom didn't know what the Cleveland jerseys looked like and they didn't know my number since it had changed!

If you can see me I am on the far side of the field (#84)

Our next scrimmage was against St. Helen's JV team. For this scrimmage my team got to start out on offense and I got to be the starting tight end, so I got to stay in for 5 or 6 plays. By the end of the scrimmage the score was 14-0 Cleveland.

First Day of School

Joe started high school this morning and Tim started middle school.  Both had good days and are excited and nervous about the rest of the week.
