My little soccer champ

Saturday morning was Lance's first soccer game. Lance was so excited all morning. He got pretty nervous when we got there. he had never performed in front of so many people. He met his team mates and coached. They started out by discussing what could be their team name. Lance said he loved dinosaurs and another little boys said Raptors were super fast, so Lance's team became the Raptors. Then they each were given their uniforms. Their colors are baby blue, and Lance's number is #2.
The coaches briefly explained to the kids what they would be doing and then gave each one of them a ball to try out. It was pretty funny watching the five kids trying to kick the ball into the goal. Lance's goal was to kick the ball as hard as he could. He would sit the ball down, back up to get a good run at it and then kick it with all his little might. It was awesome. This didn't work so well in the game though. While he was backing up to kick it another kid would come running and kick it before he got a chance. Lance wasn't discouraged though. He would just run along with the other kids. You could tell he was really having fun. He smiled the entire time. Well till the end when him and another boy crashed heads with each other. By then he was pretty wore out and hungry.
Our first soccer game was a success. We all had so much fun. Lexie can't wait to be able to play with big brother. I am enjoying being a soccer mom! Daddy loved cheering on his big boy. It is crazy how fast time has flown. God continues a to bless us with these special moments. We love our little babies so much!!
