Soccer: finishes up

Garrett's soccer season finished up at the end of the month. He made some significant strides this year in soccer. He became very aware of where the ball was at all times, often peeling back to get in between the ball and the goal (they don't have a goalie at his level). He also would come up to the group where the ball was a blast it forward, sometimes to a teammate who was starting to head down the field toward their goal to rack up an assist. As long as soccer is fun for him we will continue to learn along with him the intricacies of the game.


My eyes are on the ball.



I'm gonna get to the ball first.



Go Tow Mater Hawkeyes! Yes that was our team name.


The halftime show, included both of my brothers wowing the crowd with dribbling and shooting exhibitions.



Look, Grammy, there is my brother Garrett kicking the ball.



Lining up to discuss strategy with Adrian before kickoff.



We're all going after the ball. I'm number 8.



Gettin' ready for the other team to kickoff.
