Saturday Games and a GOAL!!


Today the new season of sports kicked off. Hayley had a great soccer game. She is one of the seasoned players on her young team. It is funny to see those new little soccer players in their first game, still not quite grasping the concept of using their feet to move the ball instead of their hands. Hayley didn't like it when the kids did that, but the parents sure laughed. She was convinced they just wanted the snacks and need to learn the rules better. But her disapproval didn't stop her determination to kick that ball, or to make sure she got her share of the snacks!

Then it was off to Michael's flag football game. He had some great plays at quarterback and almost had an awesome interception playing defense. I forgot the camera but soon we will get a picture up here of him and that mouthpiece he has to wear. He loves it...NOT!


Trevor scored the first goal of the season just minutes into the 1st quarter. He is also one of the older kids on his team but has the same coach from last season, and has really learned alot. It is fun to see how fast the kids learn, from Hayley's team to Trevor's, passing is happening and plays are really being made. Trev loves soccer and is really fun to watch. This is a picture from last season. It wasn't quite so hot today as it was in that picture, but we sure did enjoy going to get ice cream after the game to celebrate the goal!
