Spring Soccer

Not sure what I was thinking when I signed up Bubba for spring soccer, since spring in Utah is neurotic (more a delayed-onset winter!). Two of the games have been cancelled/rescheduled due to rain/snow, others have been freezing cold. The last 2 have been in the 70's so that's good at least. I guess what can you expect when the season spans from end of March to start of April. Still, I think will stay with fall soccer next year! Bubba is a funny kid, this is his tiger stance. Their team decided to be the BYU Tigersaurs (way to include all the kid's creative name idea, LOL) so they are often found doing this stance at the start of the game. As you can imagine, Bubba does it more often than that. He is learning better coordination with kicking, he still has a lot to learn but it's good for him to interact with other kids and learn to be part of a team. Plus, you can't beat the treats at the end of the game. And we finally got him knee-length soccer socks to go over his shin guards so he looks super cute in his soccer uniform.

Soccer is always good! I'm starting a little league/camp out here with my brother. It's for little kids from ages 3-6. It's our first year, but we're excited about it. We'll see how it goes. Awesome Ian! Even if it is cold :) Come here. It hit the 90's this week. Beached it! Loved it! Miss you.

I have to say little boys in soccer uniforms are so cute. Is watching Ian play soccer as entertaining as it is Kamden? I think it's a crack up that they end up goofing off more than they end up playing. I am always amazed to see the little ones who actually know what they are doing and can play the game. :)

Julane, that is Ian exactly! Usually we are yelling at him to get up on the ground (he's always falling over) and focus on the game, LOL. This age is funny because they crowd around the ball and all try to kick it at the same time. But it is amazing the kids who are really coordinated and know what they are doing...that isn't Ian but we're glad he's at least a part of something and being exposed to things :)
