Great day at the soccer field!

We have always loved watching Abigail and Andrew in their various extracurricular activities (gymnastics, dancing, t-ball, etc), but this soccer season has been an extra special treat for our family!  For starters, the weather is still comfortable (it's not sweaty hot at 9:30 in the morning, yet), but most importantly we get to watch both kiddos play on the same team and they are at an age where they understand the game better, so it's awesome to see them improve each week.  Highlight from today's game is that Abby scored a great goal and came so close a couple of other times too.  The look on her face after scoring the goal was priceless because she worked so hard for it!  She got the award for player of the game this week too!  Andrew also impressed us with how well he played defense, always knew where the ball was, and hustled.  His highlight of the game... he loves when the parents make a tunnel for them to run through at the end of the game :-).

We are so proud of these two...

Anytime they would come off the field they wanted to kiss the mascot and make sure that she was watching them play...  Here is the soccer ball mascot (thank you Auntie Danie for the precious onesie) with her taggies blanket on her head, shading her from the light rain...
Grace is always such a trooper during soccer games because despite my best effort to keep quiet, I can't help but cheer for the kids, so she is forever being woken up or startled by her crazy cheer leader mom :-)
