Soccer!!

This past Saturday, Colsen had his first soccer practice/clinic at the Y. He absolutely LOVED it!! I was a little nervous about how he would do, because this is the first time we've done anything with sports. He was super excited and was even okay with me putting on his shin guards and cleets. When we got to the practice he couldn't wait to get down to the fields and play. He was a little reserved at first but with a little encouragement from one of the coaches he was ready to play!! I was so proud of him!! He got out there and did what the coaches asked him to do and had a FANTASTIC time!!! I know he can't wait to go back!!

Had to get a few pictures before we left the house.

Gotta love Colsen's new smile!!

Getting a little encouragement from one of the coaches.

Now Colsen gets a little instruction from the coach.



Trapping the ball, meaning putting your foot on top of it.

Having fun!!

Big kick

And other big kick!!

Already learned to sit on his ball.

Working on dribbling the ball.

Having fun playing a game where they trap the ball with different body parts. Here he is trapping the ball with his ear.

Soccer is so much fun!!

Go Team!!

One more picture taken after practice. Such a silly boy!!

This is completely off the subject of soccer, but this morning when Colsen and I were getting in the car on our way to school, we saw a flock of geese in our backyard. I guess they were looking for food. There were about 12 of them so I had to get a picture.
