Soccer

Wow it has been a while since we did a post.. Soccer started in April for all 3 kids in Utah and Lucy did a soccer basics camp in Washington. Syd, Stock and Nic had 8 games each this year and loved it, even playing in the cold weather. It started out by chance, then I had to make it happen for all 3 kids, but they all had the #5 jersey on their teams this year. And they thought that was pretty cool. Syd is our go getter and aggressive, with her size you would think she might hold back going up against the bigger kids and boys, but she isn't. She hustles both on offense and defense. Stock is our most improved this year, especially from his first year of soccer, were he just wanted to be friends with all the players and going after the ball didn't matter. This year was different, he is a great hustler and an awesome goalie, it might be his niche in soccer. This year was Nic's first year for soccer, and he was not going to be out shined by anyone. He made two goals on the Saturday game that Grampa came from Wyoming to watch. And according to Grampa he definitely has the fist pump down and can really celebrate scoring, he is not my shy son at all. He would come out of the pack holding up is fingers in the #1 sign and giving high fives. I believe he is my first child at that stage in sports who knew if he really won or lost in the game, because he definitely keeps track of the goals. Soccer rocked our world this Spring!
