WOW! That sums up my feelings towards the first soccer game of this spring season. First, it was a GORGEOUS day; second, Terri came to help cheer Braden along with Josh and I; and third, this age group is so awesome to watch play soccer! Last year, the boys had the fundamentals of the game down pat, but not the attention span to actually play for the entire game. This year, it was all business. Braden was very into the game, no shame, no fear, no-holds-barred! It was great watching him play both on the offense and the defense, and he did an awesome job! I was very proud of him, and the game went by so fast. I cannot wait for this weekend, we have two games to watch, one on Saturday and one on Sunday, GO NINJAS! Here are some pics from the game.
Braden getting in there to get the ball!
Defense, blocking that goal from a free kick - look at all those blond haired boys!
Going in for a goal! And in case you cannot see what name is on his shirt it says "Lightning", Braden chose this to be his nickname on the team, and that is what they all call him, it is rather cute actually listening to them all cheer for him calling him Lightning! hehehe
...and yes friends, Braden's soccer is #9, and no we didn't chose it, it was assigned to him -ha!
Watch out, he is getting ready to kick it!
Run buddy, run!
This is my all time favorite pic though, look at that tongue sticking out, my only guess is that it is totally helping him concentrate more on the game and his role in it - ha!

hehe... looks like he had lots of fun. Love the last picture of him, I'm sure it does help him concentrate... didn't you ever do that as a child when working on projects? I know I did and so does Gavin :) It TOTALLY helps...ha.
