Soccer

Owen entered the world of 'organized' sports this fall. I put organized in quotes, because the attention span of this group of 3 year olds unraveled significantly as each soccer week wore on. He had a blast, and we were glad it was only six weeks!
 
Week one... they are all in a line, listening.

The day before the first soccer practice, he wore his shin guards the entire day...
in anticipation of the fun about to come!

This little one ran around like a chicken with her head cut off most practices. Needless to say, the kids went down pretty easily on Wednesday nights!

Simon says, touch your ears.

Love this shot!

Excitement!

Celebrating the end of the 'season'. They never had real games of course, and actually I thought it would be a little bit like 'herd' ball. That would have required all of the kids to be focused on the same thing at one time! Competitively, O was more concerned that he was running the fastest than if he was dribbling or getting the ball in to the net! We, of course, are proud of him for learning both new skills and how to (kind of) be part of a team.
 
Until next year....
