Soccer Season

On Saturday, July 31st, Saxon had his first soccer game.
He did such a good job!
They only had 6 players show up, so they all played the whole game.
Gregor worked with Saxon a little during the week to help him learn to play.
He ran as hard as he could the whole time and even kicked the ball a few times.

Soccer at this age is so funny. They all stay in a big group and chase the ball. One kid laid down in the middle of the field half way through and said he was done and too tired. Another kid was playing goalie and took off his jersey and handed it to his coach and said "I'm done. I don't like being goalie." We laughed so hard! Every time Saxon would kick the ball, he would look up at his coach and give her a "thumbs up". It was so cute! The age group to start soccer is 4-5. Saxon is 3, but he is almost 4, so we signed him up anyway. He's the youngest one out there and still did such a good job. We're so proud of him!

Bridger was really jealous that he didn't get to play. We brought his own soccer ball to kick around on the sidelines, but he still tried to go out on the field with Saxon. He thinks he should be big enough already. A couple more years...
