Soccer Star

Our soccer star Samantha is at it again! Scoring goals right and left at her soccer games!! She’s on a team this year made up of all friends and is loving playing soccer.

The team’s official name is the Blueberry Cupcake Sparkly Princess Unicorns! ha! Seems fitting when you see all the pink and purple on the field!

First game!

This girl hustles! She’s running all over that field, going after the ball every time to get it turned around and into that goal! So proud of her!

Second game!

Samantha scored 6 of the team’s 7 goals! She also did plenty of cartwheels on the field! ha!

Love my soccer star!!

Are you ready for some football?! We are! We’ve been watching some top notch football around here the past few weeks. Maxwell is playing tackle football this year and it’s been so fun – for him to play and for us to watch! 4th grade tackle football is interesting because there is quite a disparity in size of the kids! Case in point…

That’s Maxwell in the black jersey in the middle! ha! Now, that photo is slightly distorted because of distance but, they do have one really really tall kid on their team!

The Raiders are now 3-o so they’ve had a great time winning. Maxwell has been playing lots and lots of defense and not as much offense as he’d like. But, he hustles at practice and does what he needs to do at games and he’ll earn his spot. He had some really strong tackles in last Sunday’s game! He might be small but he’s tough!
