Soccer Season...

Today was the first of many soccer games. Owen's team is called the Twisters. His game was bright and early at 8:00am which was really nice cause it was a little cooler. I was hesitant to put him in again this year (he cried a lot last year) but he said he wanted to play. He did so well today! There was no crying and he went right in and played instead of just staying away from all the action. It was really exciting and am so glad that he has really grown a lot in this past year.
The battery in my camera was dead so I only took these with my phone.
The girls played a little later. Their team is the Lavender Dragons. I ended up making their banner which caused me a lot of stress in the last few days but I am glad to be done with it. It was a lot warmer during their game, but with an umbrella and a little breeze it was bearable. Quincy and Abbey did soooo well today. They also have grown so much in the past year and I started to see signs of aggression and are really getting into the games! Quincy even scored a goal! I was so excited and I jumped up and cheered until I got all choked up...then I had to sit down and be thankful that I was wearing sunglasses. This season is looking like it will be a lot more exciting.

The girls games wasn't till 11:40 so I was able to charge my the battery in my phone. As you can see, my camera isn't any better then my phone. I hate this piece of crap...the zoom stopped working in the summer and it is only a little over a year old. So I didn't even try to take any while they were playing, all we would have seen were little tiny dots in the grass.

A+ on the banner! That must have taken a ton of time and patience! glad to hear they are all doing so well. I hope the season is great!

YEAH for soccer season! Connor cried alot his first season...Kevin would get so mad...,"there's no crying in soccer!" But last season we got a great coach and stuck with him this season also! It's so fun to watch!....If you don't like the banners, (they are cute, but wouldn't want to make one every season!) switch over to GYSA...no banners! Owen and Connor could play on the same team...carpool...think about it!?!?! I almost cry every time Kendyl makes a goal! I'm glad I'm not the only emotional one! By the way..how do you get your pictures transferred to your computer? Come teach me!

Nancy-- your banner turned out way cute-- how fun to watch your little ones run around on the field-- A.D. can't wait to see our boys start up in something-- I told him "well, what if they like drama or something?" the stone cold face he gave me was priceless!!!
