Sports Sunday!

Today was Sports Sunday at church. Everyone that wanted to, was supposed to wear their favorite team's jersey to the service. I must say, it was a little awkward to wear jeans to church. Camden even called me out when we were leaving the house this morning "Mommy, why are YOU wearing jeans to church? I don't think the adults are supposed to wear jeans!" Seriously, my own child just yelled this in our driveway. Oh well, at least I was comfortable because I was scheduled to help in the 4 year old class; which really just means wrangling the kids and making sure they're not pulling each other's hair or pushing each other. This is the same class that a little boy thought it was funny to dance while "flipping everyone the bird" last time I was in there! He knew what he was doing too, because when I shockingly asked "Kevin, what are you doing?" He quickly put his hands behind his back and acted like he wasn't doing anything but dancing to the music.
It was a great day and the kids all got a football from the church which immediately was banned out of the house and a backyard toy as soon as we got home!
All Houston fans...

Braeden never looks at the camera... (I had to "trick" him into this shot)

As we're about to leave this conversation takes place:

Camden - Maya, let me see your eyes. Mommy, what color are Maya's eyes? Are they weasel?

Me - Weasel? Do you mean hazel?

Camden - Oh yeah, hazel.

Her eyes are still pretty green if you ask me, but I guess they could change...

So you may be wondering what I wore on Sports Sunday to church. Well since I'm so last minute about things and not really wanting to spend money on a jersey for myself, I just assume I'll figure it out on Sunday morning. Well, when I first heard about wearing a jersey I thought, I'm pretty sure I have a Sam Cassell Rocket's jersey somewhere in my closet (yes, I'm well aware it's from the mid 90's, but I didn't care!). Sunday morning gets here and I search through my closet and find nothing, I have no idea where this jersey has disappeared to. Next best option you might ask? Well believe it or not, I have a University of Texas volleyball t-shirt from when I went to camp there back in high school and it still fits!! So I sported a t-shirt that is, let's see, probably 15 years old. Shockingly enough there are no stains or holes in this shirt! Camden called me out on this shirt as well, but not until later in the day. He asked me "Mommy, is that a day time shirt?" I have worn this shirt to sleep in a time or two. What can I say? It worked for Sports Sunday!! :)

t.u.!?! I'm disappointed in you, Jen. ;-)

I would actually not have anything to wear to something like that - so I guess I am impressed that you found something!
