SOCCER SATURDAYS!

Lightning started soccer 3 weeks ago and I have not had a chance to see any of his games until today. His team is really good. They do not officially keep score, but his team has won every game! He loves Soccer. I think we have found his sport of choice. He has informed me that he no longer wants to play any Baseball.



GL had to work today and so I had to take all the little ones w/me! This is nothing new, but at least when he played baseball there was a fence to keep my little roaming hooligans off the field. I got smart and brought a blanket and the girls Doodle Bears. They did not play w/the Doodle Bears the whole time but they stayed off the field and that's all that matters to me. The babies did great being stuck in their stroller. I love it when there is so much to see that they do not realize how long they have been trapped in their seats.



He sure doesn't look to miserable to me!!!!!

I know you are wondering what the piano has to do w/soccer. Nothing at all. I was storing my little sisters piano for a while an well she took it back and I needed a new one. This is it. Milano's delivered it today. Lightning plays and was actually excited to see it too. I am glad to see he likes playing more than he is usually willing to admit. Maybe just for a little while the novelty of having a new one will motivate him to practice w/less whining. Hey, a Mother can dream can't she?

What a cute soccer player! I miss having Brock in soccer. I love the piano. Having a new piano works for a little bit, well it lasted for about six months, then it was back to the same. Now we have to bribe them to do their practicing. I am all out of ideas, I think I have tried just about everything I can think of!

Looks like a fun day at the soccer field. It is so nice now that the weather is cooling down.

We are about to loose the piano we have been "storing" (sp?) for a family member. We will be in the market too!

Nice piano! I love it! I want one so bad, but I told myself I needed to learn how to play first! Maybe I'll have Lightening teach me! :)
And what a stinkin cutie he is all red & sweaty from playing soccer. I'm a huge soccer fan - grew up with two brothers playing and now my brother's son! Let us know when his next game is and we will be sure to make it!
Oh, Nelson said you called about going to Tom's--I wish I was home, I would have totally gone. I never turn down Tom's!
