Super Soccer Stars

Soccer is now in full swing! Jonathan and Aaron are both keeping us all busy playing soccer this Spring (and winter). Although they play in two different age divisions, they were luckily assigned the same coach. So this means none of the practices or games ever overlap; and mostly all of their games are on the same night back-to-back.

The matches began this past Monday night. Aaron and Jonathan both had games, so we were at the soccer fields from about 6:00 until 8:45 cheering the boys on. Aaron's team won their game by a whopping 6 points with score of 9 to 3! Jonathan's, on the other hand, came off the field with a loss of 2 to 0. Both the boys played their hearts out and are really looking pretty good! Jeff makes a pretty good assistant coach for Aaron's Red Team too!

We had games tonight too. Aaron's team scored 5 points for their team, plus 2 points for the other team. When those 2 points were added to the Blue team's 5 points, the victory went to the Blue team. The final score was 7 to 5.

Jonathan and the Purple team played a tough game against the Blue team. The opponent managed to score 1 goal. Jonathan ran fast and got some good kicks, and almost scored a goal. However, the other team won. The final score was 1 to 0.

We're keeping our heads up, continuing to play hard, and having a blast! Everyone can come see them play anytime. Just let us know! In the meantime, here are some pictures of Aaron's game. Jonathan's pictures didn't turn out, so we'll post some later.
