Soccer Opening Day

Last weekend kicked off the official start to soccer season!  This year we have two soccer players in the house now that Jack is playing on his own team.  Our Sunday's are a little crazy with both games which may or may not be back to back on a given weekend.  Eric is coaching both boys teams which just adds to the craziness of the day. 

Jack has been talking about playing soccer for 6 months now.  I thought the first game would be awesome...he'd run out there and start playing since he has been asking to play for so long now.  Well that thought was quickly squashed when we got to the field and had a minor meltdown because his shoes were untied yet he wouldn't let us tie them, then he hung on Eric's leg for the first 30 minutes and then once the game started, he stood in the field as everyone ran by him and just stared at them.  hmm....we weren't off to a good start.
Pep talk from dad.



And then all of a sudden...BAM...with 10 minutes left of the game, he turned into a soccer superstar.  He was running up and down the field and waving to me on the sidelines.




Fingers crossed that the game this weekend goes as well as the last 10 minutes did!

Next up was Will's game.  In Will's words, he is the best player on the team.  As you can tell we have no modesty in this household.  He was all about how good he was, how many goals he was going to get and how fast he could run.  At least we didn't have to beg him to go out on the field!






Goal!
