Soccer Season

Soccer has begun yet again here in the Northwest and Lucas loves being a part of it. We're on a new team this year since the 9-10 years olds have all their games on Sunday. So we're playing a year up with the 10-11 year old and now have Saturday games. Luckily Lucas' best friend Kyle came with us so they get to play together again.

Lucas plays defense mostly and is learning how to control the ball and to be more aggressive. Aaron still doesn't understand the obsession people have with this low-scoring, too-much-running-around type of game but he comes to stand on the side lines and yells like all the good parents. He still has the dream of Lucas becoming a runner and doing track. And I have a very strong inkling Lucas is headed off in that direction. Lucas LOVES to run and would love to start training again. I'm looking up races this fall they can enter. And if I can get myself off the couch, maybe we'll make it a family thing.
Jonah and his tricks.
