Loop the Oaks

This morning Adam, Blake, Hunter and Dave ran the first annual Loop the Oaks in Glen Oaks.  This is a 5K around the neighborhood.  What makes this especially challenging is the hills.  There were 87 runners.  One was a marathoner that won, but our very own Blake was second overall.  Followed by Adam in 4th place and Hunter and Dave coming in 6 and 7.  The Underwoods ruled th Oaks!

Green Thumb

This morning I grew a green thumb...
 
 
...slicing vegetables in the vegetable slicer.
 
This is going to be a house of handicaps
once Allen gets his knee surgery on October 23.

Bragging Rights



We're his proud grandparents :)
We received this email from our daughter writing about her firstborn:


 
Hunter has been invited to the Extended Learning Program (ELP) at school for math.
 This is for the top math students.
 Seven kids in the sixth grate at his school passed the test to be in the program.
 
He is very excited. Today they learned about pi and calculating the speed of light.

The Mailman and the Terminator


This year Blake plays on the 49ers and has been awarded the title of  TheTerminator by his coaches for his middle line backer tiger-like prowess.  Here he is in his shirt from the coaches.  He also plays full back.



Hunter plays for the Dolphins and has been given the nickname of The Mailman because at full back he always delivers.  He also plays middle line backer.

I wanted to share a few video clips of Hunter but I can't seemed to download them successfully.  Sorry.
 
Both Hunter and Blake were invited to play on their age groups select teams.  They are both moving to Valley Tigers Black Select after the regular season.  They will play in tournaments into November.  One will be in Omaha.  They are very excited to be chosen for these teams.
