First Soccer Game

Jeremiah had his first soccer game last Satursday and, well, it didn't go that great.  Because it's a 'fun league' there are no scores kept - but J certainly is smart enough to figure out that his team didn't score any goals while the other team scored goal after goal.  He was definitely discouraged, but I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing for him to feel that.  (He's used to winning around here.) 

Go J go!

After a disappointing game, we went downtown for pizza and stumbled across a fun festival. 
We got to meet Curious George!

And the kids got their faces painted.

Oooooh!  Scary!

My two skeletons.


It turned out to be a really fun day.  Since Sarah's not napping anymore, we stayed out until 2pm or so.  As much as I miss her napping - it is fun to just stay out and do things!

Soccer!

Jeremiah started in the Laveen Soccer League last week.  We missed our first game, as we were basking in beautiful weather in Pinetop, but he's been enjoying practice SO MUCH!

All dressed and ready to go - shin guards and his soccer shirt!

He doesn't stop running the entire time!  I can't wait for his first game.

His coach is a friend's husband, so Jeremiah knows him.  He loves it, and of course, Sarah wishes she could play, too.  Today she cried because she couldn't join the 'huddle' before practice.  Poor thing!
