Soccer season starts again

Cole played last season and really, really enjoyed it. And this time, Katelyn is playing too... although she made it thru one practice and said that she doesn't like it. Go figure! :) Oh well, it only lasts 2 months so surely she can make it thru that long or maybe she'll grow to like it as time goes on. Her coach is really great with the youngins', so that should help her too.

It didn't help that it was really cold on practice day and only got colder once the sun started going down... like shivering cold for us peeps who get cold easily. I could barely focus! I now realize that I cannot possibly ever live my dream life in the snow field plains of Montana or in the Alaska bush (my 2 choices) --> because if 55 degrees is cold to me, just imagine what the winters there would be! -- I'd turn into a ice sculpture quickly! Brrrr... maybe Hawaii is more up my alley! ha ha :)

So, here are a couple pictures before their first soccer practice.


Here is their "game faces" on... funny!

Cole (in the green shirt) practicing stopping the ball... he had fun but he's team is no joke this season. Very serious stuff now.

Katelyn practicing kicking the ball up past the cones... she looks excited huh?

But she did enjoy making her hair flip & flop from side to side... and she did save a ladybug that she almost stepped on with her cleats (she's my bug girl). I had to go on the field and get it from her so she'd get back to soccer instead of bug saving. Ahhh, fun times! :)

Kids keep it interesting, that's for sure! :)
