Brian's last game

Well, I have been meaning to post these pictures since Saturday, but am just now getting around to it!! Brian had his final soccer game on Saturday. He has had a lot of fun and his coaches were fantastic. I loved that there were really no practices, just right before the games. It was just my speed. I know that there are lots of parents that might not think that this was enough practice, but with 4 kids, less is more!!! I thought that it was just right for kids ages 4 to 6!! His games were supposed to be done last week, but we have had so much rain that several games had been cancelled and made up. Weston still has 2 more games. :) Above is Brian practicing before the game. They cut the practice short because it started to rain.
Here is Brian during the game. He was ahead of the ball here! :)
Here they are "building a wall" for defense against the other team. As you can see, most of the team is really paying attention to what is going on in the game. Brian was most likely singing or calling to the birds or something not related to soccer. :) Oh well!
After the game was over, the coaches took the kids up to the nearby pavilion and handed out the trophies. Brian was SO excited to have a cool trophy and wanted it displayed!! It is on our fireplace for all to see!!!! That is Brian with one of his coaches.
And here is the whole team. They were called the Maroon Monsters!!! It was a fun season for sure!!! Way to go Brian!!!!

Sure are cute for a band of Monsters! And hey, that trophy is extremely valuable...might want to add it to the home owner's policy...just in case. :)

Ooohh, those little soccer players are SOO sweet looking! I'm glad Brian got to play soccer, especially since it was so low-key and fun for him. You'll have to show us a close up picture of the trophey. :) Brian looks so cute!
