Soccer Ethan



Ethan started soccer this past week and he LOVES it again. His team is the Blue Jets. They had a game last Saturday. They have 8 on their team and play 4 on 4 soccer. The other team only had 3 players show up. The coach told the parents that she didn't want to forfeit because she thought they could give us a run for our money. So their poor 3 team members had to play the entire time while our guys rotated through playing 4 at a time and then taking a rest. Needless to say, we won by quite a bit. Ethan made 3 goals...one for the other team but we are still counting it! One of the goals was from a mid-field kick that no one blocked so it went into the goal, pretty good aim I think. He also made one save at the goal. The kids on his team have improved quite a bit over last year. He is loving it!

We're in the middle of soccer right now, too -- well, more like "run around with the herd" for the 4-year-old and "socialize with my friends by the goals" for the 6-year-old:)
