Soccer

Today after school was Kale and Hadley's second soccer game. Last Wednesday was their first game. They are both really enjoying themselves. Kale loves soccer and even last Friday when we were watching football he said "All this football makes me want to play soccer!" There are a couple of kids on his team that are pretty good for their age and they are able to dominate the game so Kale hardly gets a foot in but he still loves it. He does ask for a lot of rests though and he loves to play defense so that he can just wait for the ball to come to him. He was able to score a goal in one of their practices and he was pretty excited about that. We have had hot weather still. Today was the coolest yet at 82 degrees. I took a picture of him after he got home from the first day of practice because his face was bright red!

Hadley is enjoying herself as well. She is aggressive when she needs to be and she stays back when she needs to. She is a team player and tries to make passes instead of hogging the ball all of the time. There is only one other team so they will just play each other over and over again. They lost their first game last Wednesday and won their game today.

Just a side note, in case you were wondering, our lizard is still alive but we can't figure out how to keep our crickets alive. They were just fine the first time we had to buy them but ever since then we can't seem to keep them alive for more than 2 days. Hmmm.
