The end of the rugby season.

We are so thankful to have found Dubai Tigers Rugby.  Ripley absolutely loved playing and is an amazing little rugger, according to his coaches.  He really does take after Papa.  We will miss the team!  Until next year!

Dubai Rugby 7s

Although my parents will tell you they came to Dubai to visit us, I am certain that my Dad was also really excited about the Dubai Rugby 7s tournament.  Despite Ripley being diagnosed with bronchitis the morning of the tournament, it was a fun-filled day of rugby and lots of fun competitions...and lots of food!

Teddy loves competing in the Land Rover competition.

Rugby Ripley

Ripley had his first day of rugby practice this morning. He is in the U4 crowd with the Tigers RFC!

Rugby 7s

Ripley really wanted his face painted!

There are lots of competitions for the kids.  This is Teddy throwing rugby balls to see his speed.

Michael got in on the action too.  The contest was to see how many rugby balls he could catch and hold onto.  He got 5!

Of course, Ripley wanted to help too!
