The nights are getting cooler, the sun's going down earlier and the local high school’s marching band is practicing every night. That must mean only one thing: It’s Football Season, again!
In college football, Thursday night marked the beginning five days of an exciting season. Also, preseason NFL football started Thursday night. (Yay, Bengals!) Tonight is the first home game for our local high school football team. Which will be my favorite locale for many Friday nights this fall; as my daughter finishes her senior year in marching band and my son blocks as defensive end. Still weird to hear the crowd cheering his name as he stops the opponent's quarter back.
Grab your hot chocolate, or whatever libation you chose, and let the (card) games begin!

Let the games begin indeed Anna! Jukem is now available online and at dozens of the very best specialty toy stores. It's a thoughtful birthday gift for boys. Moms who stock up on a handful don't have to rush out and shop at the last minute every time their child gets invited to a party! You'll be the MVG (most valuable guest) if you bring Jukem Football with you next time you're invited over to watch the Big Game with friends. Thank you for this great article.
