Spring Soccer

We signed the kids up for Spring Soccer. Their games are every Saturday until May 4th.  Emily is supposed to have practices on Monday nights, but has only had one and a half practices because it always seems to rain, snow or be too windy and cold. Mordecai's team has practice before their games. The first game was March 16th. Emily's games are at 10:30 and they play 3 vs. 3. Mordecai's games are at 1:00 and they also play 3 vs. 3. Emily's seems to be the only one on her team (Falcons)  that hasn't played before. Mordecai's team (Cheetahs) is the opposite, I think only the coach's kid has played before...so its amusing watching his team, and his poor coach.

*Some funny things during Mordecai's first game.*
- When Mordecai subbed out for water he came walking across the field, mid game, and says, "Mom, I'm just taking a break."

- There was a kid on our team getting ready to kick off, just before he did he stops and says while pointing, "Look! An airplane."

- After our coach directed the kids on where to kick the ball another little boy pointed out how cool the clouds looked.

- Mordecai upon getting ready to start the game directed a kid from the other team where to stand. That's funny because we are always trying to get the kid to stand where he's supposed to.

I think we will be signing Emily up for Fall soccer, but probably not Mordecai. He doesn't seem to love it like Emily does.
