Soccer is back in Session...







We had our first soccer games of the season this weekend.
Seth, our middle son in the first group of pictures, was asked which number he wanted.
His reply was #1.
Picking #1 would have been perfectly okay if he'd left his commentary out of the choice.
He told the coach he was picking number one cause he is number one.
Obviously, he doesn't struggle with low self esteem.
And, more obviously, we need to work on humility when it comes to sports.


We've decided that we have some of our best "photo sessions" with Lydia at the ball fields.

Luke is our inventive, creative child, who has been working to find a sport that he can love.
I think he's found it in soccer.
The coach let him play three out four quarters, and he did so awesome!
Can I just go on record saying that coaches make all the difference?
We've got a great coach that is highly gifted in teaching the sport of soccer and in encouraging every kid.
This is our second season with Coach Jeff, and we hope we have him every season!

Hope you're having a great weekend~

    You are so right about the coach...Dave is coaching both teams this year and they love having him on the field with them.
    Enjoy the day

  2. coaches absolutely make all the difference~ We used to soccer but we would stand in the freezing rain holding umbrellas and wearing rain boots. I much prefer that the girls are in dance now!

  4. Yes ma'am! We are in full swing with soccer around here too. My son, however, is more interested in chasing the ice cream cart than the soccer ball!
