Soccer practice #1 =

A HUGE SUCCESS - and Mommy and Daddy could not be more thankful. After a quick (record fast) supper, leaving the dirty plates and dishes all over the table (David said this used to drive his mom crazy, and I think I will join her! I never experienced this at my house because we mostly ate out all the time!), we loaded our party of six into the Mommy car. We felt we should all be there for Carter's very first soccer practice, the very first practice for our family. (Side note, this will be the last time we all go, ha!) Without any trouble, we found the correct field, met Coach Don, and began our first soccer season! Carter did great! We really didn't know what to expect, and we thought he would be very bashful. He was a little unsure at first, but it took him no time to warm up and jump right into the fun. He followed his Coach's directions very well, met some new friends, and had a blast playing soccer! Check it out for yourself. Take note of that BIG smile on his face! So worth the craziness!


Tilly did not understand why she could not be on the field with Carter. Several times, we had to physically remove her from the field, hence the reason we will not all the attending the rest of his practices, ha! Carter's little sisters sure do adore him. Even Story was awake long enough to enjoy watching big brother play!
Summer had fun kicking her ball on the sidelines and leading Daddy in a series of exercises. I should have gotten a picture of that; it was a sight! He is such a good sport!
Whew! This soccer stuff is hard work!
