First Soccer Game

Chase and Owen's team picture.  Don't you love how they are the shortest and look at how long their little shorts are! :)  Owen is on the right, Chase is looking down at the boy's shoes.
Well, this wasn't really our first soccer game.  It was our second.  Our first soccer game was sleeting so we opted out of bringing the camera.
Chase kicks the ball away from his teammate. (this is how it goes at this age, I've learned)
After each kick Chase would do this happy dance, it was so funny, all the parents were giggling.
My happy soccer player.
Owen's turn to chase town the ball with his teammate.

Owen brings the ball down the field.
Nice kick Owen!
Run Owen Run!
Owen again.
Now it's Chase's turn to bring the ball down the field.

Owen scores a goal!!! Yipeeee
At 8:30 in the morning on a Saturday this is about as good as we all look.

I wonder what they are talking about here.
Owen outsmarts the opponent. 


Tackling always occurs at these game.
Shaking hands at the end of the game.

It was a fun game.  I have no idea what the score was, but I'm pretty sure we didn't win.  Our team of boys is pretty timid and there are only 2 girls who are pretty into the game.  It's very cute and funny to watch the little personalities of the kids.  The boys don't like it when they don't get the ball all to themselves and then give up, sometimes.  We are working on stamina.
