My Boy's FIRST Soccer Game!

Last Saturday was Noah's first game.  I tell ya, that boy was ready to play!!!


The intensity on his face was cracking me up. He sure was keeping up with that ball - making Coach Dad proud! 

Good thing I took tons of video and pictures last week because all these crazy thunderstorms and tornado watches are putting a damper on soccer season. Noah was actually supposed to have his first game THREE weeks ago, and then today's games were cancelled for both kids. (Yup, I am now a soccer mom times two, and Pat is double-coaching both Abby's and Noah's teams. And have I mentioned all of the conflicts we've had so far with Daisy Scout activities and the upcoming dance recital? Obviously, I did not think this through...)

At this rate, he may only have a couple of games left. Poor kid. I guess that's why the spring registration is only $20. I have a feeling though that he will want to play again in the fall...


I mean...look at that face!

(I just hope his cleats still fit.)

I just love kids soccer...I mean when they are really young and they are just masses of flailing limbs and a sometimes-kicked ball (usually by accident). Too bad your games were cancelled but your boy is happy! (By the way, who won? Not that it's important...)
