Little 3 Play SOCCER!!!!

This past Saturday was the first of our SUPER CRAZY Saturdays this Fall - 

ONE FOOTBALL game (Dallin) and

FOUR SOCCER games (Matthew, Gavin, Brecken, and the twins).

With all the craziness of getting out the door and making sure I knew where everyone had to be and when, I forgot my camera.  But when I went home to get Brecken for his game (I had a babysitter so the little 3 didn't have to be gone ALL day), I grabbed it.  So no pictures of Dallin's or Matthew's game because my camera was at home and none of Gavin's because it was at the same time as Brecken's game so Ed was at it.  Somehow, all 6 kids got to their games and got there on time!

Here is Brecken at his game - his team are the GREEN GATORS.  He is definitely better this year but still needs work.  He did have a lot of fun though. He drank almost his whole BLUE gatorade right before the game started so his mouth is very blue.

 He did great some of the time - he really went after the ball.  He had a couple of break aways - but didn't manage to score - there is always next week!

 I LOVE his face!

 At this age, they kick the ball in instead of throwing it in.

 Go Brecken Go!

 Luckily the twins game was at the kids school that is right by our house - and Brecken's game was at a park just a couple of blocks away.  So my cute little babysitter was able to walk to twins to their game and I came over as soon as Brecken's ended - I made it before the game started!  Ed got there as soon as he could after Gavin's game.

The twins 2 coaches are 2 of our friends, Jeff and Jeff - they are the GREEN LASERS.  And can I say they are so good with all the kids, but especially Cameron - who from the pictures, you can tell doesn't really want to be there.  Cameron said, "there are too many people".  

 Kesley on the other hand, was super excited to play and got right in there kicking the ball.  I am just sad I wasn't home to put fun bows in her hair - don't worry, she will have them next week!

 She was so fun to watch - she would kick the ball and do a jump/hop thing.

 Look at her go!

 She didn't score but there were a couple of times she came close!

 Kicking it in.

I LOVE the little boy on the ground getting smashed and Kesley fighting for the ball - go girl!

Kesley was always right with the ball.

 We were just happy when we could get Cameron to go on the field - even if it meant on of his coaches was carrying him or holding his hand - and that was only after bribes and threats.

 He went out by himself after I said I would take him to Orange Leaf - his favorite place.

 Of course, he needed his coach to help him kick the ball at first.

 Kick!  We will take whatever we can get with him.

 After a little bit and a LOT of cheers from our family and all my friends, Cameron had fun.  Once after the whistle blew, he kept playing and scored a goal - we just pretended it counted (since you don't officially keep score at this age).

 He still had moments of standing around - I have to remember he is 4.

Guess he was tired! 

 I love this picture - Cameron resting on the field and Kesley acting bugged he isn't playing!

 Seriously the best coaches - Jeff and Jeff!  I owe you two!

 Go Kesley!  She is so fun!

 Go Cameron!  Out there all by himself!

 Both playing at once!  LOVE it!!!!!

 LOVE these two!

Happy boy!  Finally! 

 Loved this one of Kyle - next week I need to take more pictures of all the kids since so many of them are my good friend's kids.

Look at my girl GO! 

 Cameron finally got the hang of it at the end - we will see how he does next week!

Our first super crazy Saturday day turned out pretty well.  Here is how all the games went:

Dallin: got KILLED 22-0 (maybe it was even more)  it was a really rough game

Matthew: WON 8-0 and he scored off a corner kick - and almost had a couple more - his team played AWESOME!  They really looked good this week.

Gavin: WON 9-1, sad I missed it but heard it was a great game!

Brecken: LOST even though they don't officially keep score but we all know we all do

Twins: WON even though they don't officially keep score but we all know we all do

Fun day - we ended it by following through with my bribe to Cameron and took all the kids to Orange Leaf.  Great day!
