preschool soccer

our first soccer game was last night. it went really well. the kids on the team got so excited any time Parker would tell them good job or give them a high five. Easton did good, but got a little tired towards the end, he has been sick the past week. as we were driving home he said to me, "Mom, are you just so proud of me?" and yes, I was.



he's got his 'fight face' on. watch out.
one of the funniest things happened after the game was over. I did snacks for this week and was handing them out to our team when a little boy from the opposing team came up and asked for one. I told him he wasn't on our team and I didn't know it I had enough. he walked away, switched his shirt to the white side (they are reversible) and came back and said, "I am white now, can I have a treat?" so, yes, I had to give him one just for his creativity.

fall soccer

I signed Easton up for fall soccer a few months ago and his first game is tomorrow. I am kind of frustrated with the city's recs and parks department. His team didn't have a coach---until Parker called them today and volunteered. Shouldn't they be on top of that with the first game being tomorrow? And then when I went to get the coaches packet, they couldn't find the jerseys. Sigh.
He knows nothing about coaching four and five year olds, so it should be interesting. I hope Easton has fun, that is all that I care about.
I will post about the first "scramble ball" game tomorrow. :)
