Soccer Boy

Soccer season ended last week. Matthew made the choice to go to Gram's funeral and miss the last game. Great kid isn't he? He has really enjoyed soccer this year. We didn't do it when we were in CA last year, too expensive for a five year old. So this year he was really excited. We did AYSO instead of a city league and I think I am a fan. With only 3 kids from each team on the field at a time and no goalie they all came away feeling like superstars.

Yes, that is illegal jumping. We were still learning. I took these pictures at the beginning of the season when it was still really cold too.

Do you love the determination on his face?

Working so hard to get that ball!

This was his team. They had a pizza party at his coach's house to wrap up. They were all cute boys. I would have to say I might actually be looking forward to fall soccer. It was a fun thing we all went to together but that only worked because Brittany didn't want to do soccer this year (thank heavens!).
