Fall= Soccer

Fall has officially struck Mobile, AL! It has been an absolutely beautiful week! With the coming of fall also comes pumpkins, costumes, turkeys and soccer. That's right, Wesley is playing soccer this year. He had his first practice last Friday and then his first game was Saturday morning at 9am. His team (the Leopards) is several of his classmates and friends from school. During the game we quickly discovered that Wesley is more of a defensive player than an offensive player. He never really wanted to kick the ball. He enjoyed blocking the goal. In his age group they have 3 players that block the goal instead of one goalie. The game was very entertaining watching the kids try to follow or catch up with the ball. Or watching them play with their hair, dance around or just stare into space. We will be bringing the video camera to the next game to capture all the entertaining moments! By the end of the game, though, Wesley did block 2 goals! He was so proud of himself! We have 1 1/2 more months of soccer so I am sure there are alot more "moments" that will happen!
After Soccer..... Makenzie starts back up with Gymnastics. She took from January- May then we took the summer off. We are only taking on 1 Saturday activity at a time! :)
