The Dawn of Competitive Sports

Hubby has dreamed of his children playing soccer since he was a young lad. He could not wait for the princess to reach the age limit of 4. He was so eager he signed up to coordinate the soccer teams of age 4....interesting job to say the least. So two weekends ago, hubby and princess headed off to the local sports store to get her team jersey, shoes and shin guards. Princess had fun but wondered why they didn't come in pink.

This past Saturday was the first game. I use "game" very loosely. Basically 25 four year olds dribbling the ball around cones and then practicing goals...quite a scene. They all patiently waited for snacks, which apparently is the highlight of soccer Saturdays for these kids....we're learning! Here are a few pics of our future Mia! Little man had a blast as he had rein over the entire flat field for the full 45 minutes. Walking video - still to come - we promise!

Lucky, lucky, lucky you. Please continue to post soccer pics as the season goes along. We have been clammoring to get into soccer. We miss the cut off for Fall soccer because his birthday is 16 days too late. :( So, we have to wait until next March to play. And he wants to play soo badly.
