Soccer Wrap-up

Tonight marked the end of Logan's 6 week soccer session.  We've been rushing out of the house on Monday nights - sometimes just John and Logan, sometimes just John and the boys (no mom).  Its been fun for Logan and he has been practicing drills and skills so far.  Bennett likes to go along and play on the other side of the gym with one of us.  Tonight, Bennett almost missed out because of a major mealtime meltdown, but after John and Logan left, Bennett pulled himself together and he and I got to meet up with them at the Sports Center.

 This was Bennett's outfit of choice tonight: rain boots and pjs.

 Logan is quite the ruler-follower.  He does EXACTLY as his instructors demonstrate...we've been trying to get him to loosen up a little!

 Tonight was their first little game, so they got some jerseys and invited parents to come on the court, too.

 Totally ready to play!

 It was fun to see Logan practice his skills in a game!  He was great!





 Before long, Bennett wanted to join in the game.  He first jumped on the court with his own ball...

 but soon he was running with the pack of kids!

 Logan at first was super protective saying, "Go back Benny, you might get hurt!"  But Logan's teachers said it was ok, so then Logan started saying, "Come on Benny, follow me!"

 The brothers having a convo on the court...

 Ready...

 still ready...

 I think both teams scored a couple goals and the kids did great.  They had an awesome time.  It was a dream come true for Bennett!

 Bennett even got to be in the team huddle with Logan at the end.



Go team!  Yay soccer!
