tyler's first soccer game
Tyler had his first soccer game on Saturday. He did very well for not having really played before. There are 6 kids on a team and the games are 3 on 3. There is no goalie, and the goals are similar to the little backyard goals you can buy just about anywhere. They play 7 minute quarters, and switch out the 3 players each time. It was so funny to watch the kids just run after the ball in mass form! Even the teammates are fighting over possession of the ball! Most of the time Tyler was content trailing the pack, but every once in a while he'd get a good kick on the ball. One time he was the "break away" kid who took the ball down the field and he actually scored a goal! We were so excited for him, and he just nonchalantly turned around and gave us a smile and a thumbs-up sign. :-) One game down -- 5 to go!

haha aww I remember when my parents put me in soccer when I was just 4 years old. I hated it, but I'm glad Tyler likes it! Looks like he's having a blast!
I ♥ their shirts are almost bigger than they are...:)
