First up, Sawyer's flag football game. He had a blast and got 4 "tackles" (aka flags). His team won 28-0.
Josh decided to play a little ball with some big boys. I'm glad they were kind and obliging because Josh was having a great time.
After football we made a quick Happy Meal stop, and then swung by the store to pick up some soccer cleats for both the boys and some shin guards for Sawyer.
Sawyer changed from his football garb to his soccer garb and we headed to the fields for both the boys soccer games at 1:00.
It was Hayden's first foray into the world of "competitive" sports. He had a lot of fun and tried his best. I could tell he was getting tired from all the running :) Video games just don't prepare you for that kind of activity!
He did especially well at stopping the ball with his foot and turning it around. His team won 5-0 with 3 of their goals being from the other team. Adorable.
Sawyer could definitely feel the burn too. Soccer has a lot of endless running doesn't it? It is fun to watch these older boys start sharpening their skills. Sawyer's team ended up winning too with a score of 2-1. And Sawyer scored one of the goals!!
He thinks the new orange shoes make him kick harder.
Hayden also claims to have made a goal. Unfortunately, I missed both goals. Kent is at work all weekend downtown and had to miss out. So my attention was split between two simultaneous soccer games and one roaming toddler. My 'little mama' McKinley was at a birthday party so she couldn't help out.
Next up for the day is McKinley's basketball game at 5:00. When is bedtime again?
