AJ had his second soccer "game" this week. He as so thrilled that PoPo was coming to watch. It is a blast to watch 3-4 yr olds run up and down the floor - trying to control the ball and kick it into the goal -- usually then don't care if it is the right goal or not.
This week the coach tried to rotate the players through the different positions. All I know, I hope the little goalie that played that position all last week --- goes to Tipp Schools - that kid was awesome!
This week they also used the "clock" - did not keep score and had Refs (a couple of times I think they were ready to fall over laughing)
AJ is ready to play. He ended up getting the ball first - got it down to the net - but still doesn't understand the kick/delivery idea. He kicks it to the goalie - oh well.
AJ's turn at goalie - not his favorite position - he loves to run up and down the floor (go figure). But he did take the position seriously.
He was able to block the goal and knew to throw the ball back out.
If you could have seen his face up close - the intensity he had with the throw.
Finally he is rotated back in to "run". He is getting better as passing off the ball to another person - but his favorite thing is to get the ball and out run everyone else down the floor. I missed his goal - was too busy watching and forgot to take pictures. I think there were some tired little kids after an hour of playing.
Jeff decided he wanted to run today. He said he had a good easy run, everything felt good (which is really good considering he really didn't focus on running this year).
The plan for Sunday was getting the leaves picked up (again). But with the wind/freezing rain, decided to wait until a few more fell.
Looks like water for Jeff on Monday and trainer for me.
