Brooke playing fall soccer

Brooke has started her first "organized" activity, playing fall soccer.  As expected, it's hysterical watching 3 and 4 year old's "learn" to play soccer.  Many are more interested in:
  • chasing each other about,
  • sticking like glue to their parents on the sidelines,
  • waving to their parents on the sidelines,
  • playing in the goal net,
  • picking grass,
  • looking for bugs,
  • oh, and the best, post-game snack!
Mom volunteered to coach the team, which proved to be a learning lesson for Mom's patience and expectations!
We had missed "picture day" so we attempted to re-create some of those classic shots, like the "player with the ball by the net."
Keira watching on, confined to her stroller, loaded up with endless snacks, and this day she has Chief by her side.
Action shots from the field of play...
Team huddle!  What are we learning today?  Soccer is a "hands-free" game!  Don't pick up the ball!!!
