Soccer

During the spring from March through May, both Jordan and Kierstin participated in soccer.  This was offered through the city we live in for fairly cheap.  If Jordan had his way he'd just play computer games all day, every day.  But I know that they both need to experience new things and be active.

Jordan loved soccer purely for the social aspect.  He is extremely friendly and is kind to everyone.  He makes conversation with complete strangers all the time.  I'm so glad that he's not shy like I've always been.

The picture above is at half time during one of his games.  He loved his coach (white shirt on the right side).  He said he was a lot of fun at practices.  There was lots of goofing off and acting silly.  Just how Jordan is on a daily basis.    

Jordan's least favorite position was goalie.  He hated letting his team down when he didn't stop the ball.  He left a couple of games pretty upset.  Poor kid.

Overall Jordan enjoyed his soccer experience and wants to do it again in the fall.

Kierstin also had a great time playing soccer.  Whether she'll play again or not I'm not really sure.

Delaney loved being on the sidelines watching all the action and messing around with Harper.

Future soccer star?  Harper would run on the field just to watch us chase after her.  Little stinker.

When Kierstin's coach asked what position she wanted to play she asked to play "sub".  I think the girl was confused.  HA!

When we signed her up for soccer she didn't want to play, but by the end of the season she was glad we did.

I'm just glad that they both had a good experience.
