Why I go Out

I knew Hawthorn were playing on Saturday afternoon and the game was being shown live on TV. I took the opportunity to get out of the house for a bit as it is often intense in our house when the Hawks are playing.

Unfortunately I couldn't stay away for the whole game. This is what I came home to (Aaron doesn't always wear his Hawks PJs in the middle of the afternoon. Kobe spewing on his jeans made him get changed and he thought his PJs were a good option!).





This next pic was taken just after he punched the door as Fevola was about to kick for goal in the last seconds of the game which would mean that the Blues would've won. I had to tell him to 'SETTLE!!!', more than once!

Thank goodness Fevola missed!


Why do boys take a game of footy so seriously!!!!????

  4. Oh that brings back memories! I grew up with 6 brothers in SA where they are just as AFL mad.....my Sat arvos were usually spent falling asleep on the couch listening to that annoying whistle!
    You're welcome to crash here when the games on, we're a no footy/tv free zone :P

  5. i feel your pain lisa. it is insane. jaron has settled down a "bit" now, but i still have to tell him to calm down - they speak to the tv like the players can hear them. when our kids were babies he would always make them cry with his loud football outbursts!

    Secondly.... Toni's comment also cracked us up cause we were just talking about how Mick used to scare the kids with his loud outbursts!!!! So funny!
