It was GREAT!
We made cupcakes for the party...and the coach brought pizza.
He knew it was the last game and he played like it!
It was MUDDY, and SLIPPERY, and at one point RAINING...and he just played and played.
In fact, he played in all but one quarter, because there were a few kids not there.
In the second quarter...TYLER made, what would end up being, the ONLY goal for the whole game.
Here it is.....He had a clear shot and he TOOK off!
Yep...that ended up being a goal. He was sooooo happy!
Just look at the pride on that face!
Just look at the pride on that face!
The kids just played and played, slipping and getting filthy!
They had so much fun.
yep...muddy.
So then, for the last quarter, Tyler was sent in as goalie. He used to love being goalie, but now it is "boring". Today however, he SAVED his first goal.
The ball was coming right at him, and he was paying as much attention as most 6 year olds pay when playing goalie (which is next to none)...but everyone started yelling, and so he took his stance JUST in time to totally catch the ball mid-air. It was awesome. Everyone screamed, and high fived him.
I didn't catch it on camera, as I was too busy yelling and screaming :) but...
He was on top of the world.
The game ended...1-0.
Then it was party time!
They did a final team cheer...got their pictures and their trophies.
Ate pizza and cupcakes...
Great season!
Sad that it is over, because this year I learned that our son has a love and a talent for soccer, and it was SO much fun to watch him play...
Next...
Basketball...starts December 14th,
Hopefully we will get the same coach we had for soccer...
Hopefully he will have as much fun.
Hopefully he will have as much fun.
We are so proud of you Tyler...you are an amazing boy, with so much to offer the world!
We love you!
