me, a soccer mom?

this past october, river got to play soccer intramurals with one of the local church schools (the one he will be attending, in fact, when he starts school possibly next year). this proved to be pretty nice because he got to meet many of the kids that will be in his class. oh, and he got to play on his cousin, amber's team, too.

oh...i don't know about you, but i absolutely LOVE watching littles play sports. you know...generally the kids are all over the field and not always doing what they are supposed to be doing. but, hey...they are kids and it is cute. for example, one of the team members on river's team kept herself busy while doing cartwheels at the goal while being goalie. too funny!  now, granted...at the highschool, college, and definitely at the professional levels this is frowned upon. okay, i understand that, but at the early elementary grades...oh my, it is too cute!!

and wouldn't you know it...they were team red. river knows that red is my favorite color so he was excited. (oh be still my heart). ;-)

so, without further ado...a few photos of soccer:

here they are doing some warm-ups...you know, to warm up their bodies and get them ready for the demands of those soccer motions..it's all just so adorable!

river and his cousin, amber (amber is the one giggling oh so cutely)

Rocky had to finish up a work email real quick during warm-ups. He is a very busy hardworking man.

lily wanting to play next year. ;-)

oh...watching him play soccer truly made my heart melt. can we say adorable much??

;-)

until next time, folks.
