Soccer Season

Thomas and Henry playing around at soccer practice.

It has been soooooo nice that Thomas and Henry are on the same team. They have wonderful coaches. (We have had both coaches before, so I was excited to have both of them together. Toga and Don are wonderful coaches.) The coaches work hard at teaching the boys skills. The boys have not won one game this year but they sure are getting better and better. Last game they played so well. They tied the game and probably had 20 or so shots at the goal. They are really starting to play as a team.
Thomas working on skills.
It was hard to get a picture of Thomas during the game. He actually shot at the goal and almost made a goal. I think it really surpise him. Thomas has endured the soccer season. He got sick a couple of weeks into it and still can't shake it off.


Lizzy hangs out with me during soccer practice and teams. She also plays with Jacob, but has a major crash on Alex. She told me last night that Alex is her prince. I told her she has at least 16 more years till she can decide who her prince will be. (But who can resist Alex's smile. Alex has been Thomas's teammate for the last couple of seasons and is really nice but I do think he is alittle too old for her.)





Henry is #9. Look at how big the person he is guarding. Henry's nickname is the fireball. He is almost always where he needs to be and is able to kick the ball out of danger. He is usually the mid. So he runs here and he runs there.




Isn't he great. He loves the game.
