Spring Soccer

Until now, we have always done soccer in the Fall instead of the Spring. Kev's Spring schedule makes it difficult to keep up with several practices and games a week. However, doing football and soccer this past fall was a bit crazy. We were out of the house four evenings a week and every Saturday all day. We thought splitting up and doing football in the fall/soccer in the Spring might be a better idea.

We recently learned of a newer soccer league that had set game times on Saturdays and no practices during the week. This would be perfect for us, we thought. It only goes to age 8, so it's just Mag and Aaron playing (Parker didn't want to play). It's about ten minutes further to drive, but we don't have to worry about burning up the whole day each week and no midweek practices, woo hoo! Today was opening day and they had a great time. An added bonus is that my nephew is also playing. Aaron and Brendyn are on the same team, which means I get to see my brother and nephew every week. I'm very excited about that, we don't see them nearly enough!

It was hard to get pictures, but here are a few. I'm going to try for more/closer/better ones next week.
