I've been pretty busy this month and have neglected the blog. These photos give you an idea of what some of that crazy schedule is all about. This game Jaybird scored his first goal (possibly ever). The sidelines erupted in noisy cheers and he casually walked away. He told us later (and the coach as well) that he was embarrassed by all the attention.
This year we have 2 teams to schedule in (I know, it could be 4 so we are pretty blessed there). The older 3 all play on the same team and this year, Boo decided to give it a try.
These photos are decptive as they are from the first game. It hasn't been warm enough for shorts SINCE! Last Saturday felt like we were playing games in December rather than October. Only 3 more weeks to go..
This is Goose who decided that she hates being Goalie. I imagine that is in part because the goal is much bigger to defend this year. She's much prefer playing defense.
Here is our first timer. She seems to enjoy playing on a team this year but needs much encouragement from the coach and the sidelines to stay after that ball. She does make a pretty cute goalie though if I do say so myself. :)
Here is Spiderman (or maybe I should say "soccer man"). He's pretty fast on his feet and seems to enjoy the challenge of scoring a goal. This game his best shot bounced off the goal posts so he was pretty disappointed. Happy fall!
