Super Soccer Star: Part IV

We now arrive at the end of Kyle’s first trip to soccer practice. Never mind the fact that he has already gone to a second session and will go to a third in less than two days. Yes, I’m recognizing that, once again, I’ve fallen behind on my blogging.

The end of the session was actually a bit on the anti-climactic end of the spectrum. Let’s just say, as the pictures will show, it had to do with kids in a parachute. Kyle doesn’t care much for parachutes. Doesn’t like them at Busy Bodies, doesn’t like them at soccer.


With that, on with the pictures!

03212009 059Hmmm. I’m not so sure about this. People are starting to grab handles on the outside of this parachute-rug.

Ok, little girl, let’s try to maintain our personal space! (It was only moments later that Kyle figured out that this parachute would be more than just something to sit on and he made a very quick exit.)

We made it! We got through our first soccer practice and Kyle did great. Daddy didn’t do too bad, either. So the boys had to pose together. Fun times!

And that was the end of his first soccer practice. We were so proud of him because he listened and participated far more than we had expected. I do wish that the same could be said of his second session, but that is not really the case. Too bad, too, because Pop-pop was there to watch him and the second time out, he didn’t listen, kept running around and doing his own thing and did not participate at all. Session two was not fun.

But, let’s not end this on a dreary note. Let’s all look forward to a day in the not-so-distant future when I go through some of the video from this session and figure out which ones to post. In the meantime, I have another bunch of pictures that are actually not Kyle-related that I’ll be posting soon, so stay tuned!

TTFN!
