Soccer

So, Carson played his very last soccer game of the season on Saturday. He has had lots of fun. These pictures were actually taken a couple weeks ago, so details are a little fuzzy. Carson was one of the oldest kids on the team, so I think that is why he was one of the best kids on the team. He is really fast, though, at least compared to other kids his age.

For the games, the teams would separate onto two fields that are right next to each other and the kids (4 and 5 yr olds) would play three on three. The fields were very small and the kids got a lot more time with the ball this way. Do they play soccer this way anywhere else, or is Greeley unique in this set up?

Carson has turned around and is trying to kick the ball behind him. He thought it was a cool trick. Bret and I just thought it was hilarious!
These first few pictures, the kids are warming up before the game.

Hey Mom!

The yellow shirt is Carson. I'm not sure if he made a goal here or not, but he did make several throughout the game.


Meanwhile...Eric was chasing his own ball.

And Brandon played on the playground.

Apparently, filling your shirt up with rocks and letting them go as you go down the slide is the cool thing to do. Brandon and the other kids at the playground did this over and over.

Hangin' out with Dad.
