      Oh the fun times with sports. So far Dallyn isn't that good, but he is trying :), sometimes.

In the picture here he was the LAST one coming in from running. At first he was one of the first ones... then he got tired.

In the one where he's swing...if you notice his arms are a little off.

His first game is this Sat.

True love? Maybe, but he's just to young... She'll have to wait.

Pretty much the best big brother. Dallyn is so great with Drew!
