Soccer Begins!

This weekend we got to enjoy the first AYSO soccer games of the season. Scott and I were commenting on how fun it is to sit out and watch our kids play. Troy is just simply in his element on the soccer field. I think he could play all day if he were allowed. They play every recess at school and now he gets to play on the weekends too. Troy's team is called The Mighty Eagles and their jerseys are bright orange. They have boys with names like Richie and Junior on the team. Troy scored two nice goals, but then hung back and passed some nice balls to his teammates too. Kam's team, The Galaxy, is a group of preteen girls, some of who want to play soccer more than others. They hung tough out there for a warm 4:00pm game and pulled out a nice win also. Kamryn scored a great goal and played like a champ. Scott is helping out as assistant coach with Kam's team. The coach is letting him take more of a lead in the practices and games, which Scott tends to enjoy. :) We're looking forward to a great fall season of soccer!

Go, number 7!Only 80 degrees, instead of the 100's we've been having, but still warm. Love those white fluffy clouds we don't usually see either.

After the game, watching his friend Justin's team play.

Just great to see see flying legs and pony-tails, and determined looks on the soccer field again. And the coach's high fives. And happy spectators.
Any games scheduled Friday afternoon Oct 7 or Sat. morning/ early afternoon Oct 8th? We want to watch.
Thanks for great images and commentary, KE. Grandma and 'Boppa R.
