Soccer, Soccer, and More Soccer

Fall weather brings one of my favorite seasons: football. And for the kids, "European" football. The two oldest are playing soccer for the county--this means each of them have two practices weekly, plus games on Saturday.

Our kids aren't the most athletic--I'd say they are average. Does it really matter at this age? Still, Brandon has finally become competetive enough to start truly going after the ball and actually playing his assigned positions--and it makes us so proud! (#12 below) Especially since he's kind of the aggravating, silly kid who won't stop horsing around and picking dandelions during T-ball season... He gets bored easily, so soccer is a good sport for him.




Tyler is very happy to know that his "girlfriend" is playing soccer too:
Tyler's team is funny to watch--the kids all crowd around and chase the ball in a little blob. Even at kickoff they all crowd together--here's Tyler at kickoff:
