We started our very, chilly morning on the soccer field at 730am. Nicky had a terrific game, scoring 2 goals and even playing goalie for a while. I was very impressed with how he played. It's such a wonderful privilege to watch his confidence grow.
Kelsie had forgotten her cleats, so in between Nicky and Lyndzi's games; Kels and I drove back to the house to get them. Lyndzi's game was already in progress with a tie score, by the time we returned. Lyndzi played goalie for the second half; and she definitely meant business. At one point a ball was heading straight for her face, but she managed to block both her gorgeous face and the goal at the same time. The game ended with T-N-T winning 7 to 2.
We moved on to Kelsie's game; and sadly, our opponents took an early lead and we never recovered. I was nervous for Kelsie who played goalie during the second half; but I think she did a very admirable job. The Torpedos experienced their first lost; but I have to say that they were great sports about it.
I thought that the U8 games were over for the day and I asked some of the dads to help Luis take the goal down. A number of the dads pitched in; but just as we were about to walk away; some people from another team showed up and advised us that they had a 1230 game. My BAD! I can't be right all of the time and clearly I was mistaken. Luis and I dragged the goal back out and set it up again; and in no time at all we were on our way.
We're happily getting ready to take our holiday photo and look at the beautiful, light displays. AND; tis the season; I'd like to share some more of my favorite holiday music. No matter what your holiday is; I hope these bring you a smile:
