So the first of August we started our Soccer Season. This was the first season we had all three of our kids playing in the same year. I knew it would be busy but the sacrifices one makes for their children is great. So we signed them up got their soccer balls, cleats, shorts, and shirts we were ready for a good season of watching games. Well Treg and Matia's teams didn't have coaches. So I voluntered for Tregs team (they are younger and wouldn't be able to tell I haven't a clue of what I am doing) and Terry voluntered to coach Matia's with me being his assistant. So that just made our crazy year of soccer twice as crazy. 
I have to tell you though there is nothing more fulfilling that watching your kids play in a sport and you can tell they are really enjoying it. Bowdee has become quite the aggressive soccer player. In fact at their last game their coach deamed him the most "football like player" he really gets in there and backs down to nothing. 
Matia loved her dad being her coach and listened to his every word. She had days were she could have tried harder. But for the most part she was quick and getting better at handling the ball. At the games her favorite position is forward so that she could run the most and chase that ball everywhere. 
Treg well it was his first year of playing ball. I think that is about all I should have to say about that. Ya, the treats were his favorite part of the game. He did love playing goalie and the last game of the year he really did try to get the ball more. He usually just follows the crowd and would rather be throwing grass at the girls on the side lines.It got so busy and consumed so much of our lives for the last 2 months that I just couldn't wait for it to be over at times. And now that it is over I wish we were back at it. I am really going to try to play more with the kids in our backyards to keep their skills up but, we all know how that goes. Well good season kids I look forward to next year already. It is so fun to see you getting better and better each year.

Soccer is so awesome, but very time consuming. Many great years at the soccer fields we enjoyed at our home. Tell Bowdee he is awesome and I am sure he will be a great soccer player like Todd and AJ are. Tell Matia and Treg they will get there too.
We just finished our round of soccer with Jake and it was a great season! Matthew didn't want to play so he was content to roll around in the mud and sand with Hannah while we watched the games. Jacob is begging for more though...I'm glad he has something he loves!
