Parents vs. Kids Soccer Game

Towards the end of August, Cameron had his last soccer game.  It was a fun game, parents versus kids.  We used a giant soccer ball so that made it even more fun.  Both Tim and I took a turn on the parent team.  Not surprisingly, the kids kept getting the ball away from us and scored a bunch of goals.

He's a cute one, my Cam  :)

And of course, the cutest spectator ever!  Actually, she was not really interested in watching the game.  She mainly wanted to drink water out of Cam's water bottle and try to get in the middle of the action.

 Before the game started, everyone stretched out.

Cam was the first goalie.  He LOVES being goalie.  He actually had a couple good blocks, including taking the giant ball right in the face!  He took it like a man though and was proud to have stopped the parents.

The kids loved bouncing on the ball almost as much as they loved kicking it.

After the game was over, there was a pizza party.  Cam does not love pizza, so he only ate a bit. Leah, on the other hand, chowed down and ate a couple pieces.  As you can see, she isn't shy about digging in.

First she ate all the cheese off, then she ate the pizza sideways.  She was a complete mess at the end, but she was a happy, full baby.

This was the best picture we got of Cameron with his medal.  He was pretty grumpy by the end of the pizza party and did not want a picture of him in uniform with his medal.  Instead, he allowed us to take a picture of him with his cookie.  :-P

It was a great soccer season.  We were very proud of how well Cameron did, he really improved every week.  He was able to score goals all season with no problem, but by the end of the season he was passing to his teammates and helping them to score goals.  That made us very proud!  He is also a very good goalie and isn't afraid to get in front of the ball.  We are looking forward to the next soccer season.
