We spent most of the month of August traveling! The beach with my family, followed by a trip to England with Gerard's family. Both were great fun. And, both were relaxing. And, both proved great opportunities to take tons of pictures! I will catch up and get some on the blog.
But, we are back home and getting back into the swing of things. Both Owen and Liam are playing sports this Fall. Owen is back in action on the t-ball field; playing his 2nd season with the Cubs. And, Little Liam joined some of his school buddies to form a soccer team -- the Dragons. Liam took his ball, shin guards, and cleats to England on got some practice over there. Today, however, was his first time to practice with the team. It started out pretty well, and went downhill, only to recover once it was over. He says he had fun. We'll go with that for now and hope for the best at the game.
Owen walking Liam to his practice field. These two were talking non-stop, but I was too far back to hear what they were saying.
Liam on the field with some of his team mates. He got his uniform from Coach and wanted to wear it to practice in. He is number 3!
There he goes -- kicking it right smack dab in the goal.
It was after I cheered for him,He came over to high-five me and then didn't want to go back. Thought he had played enough and was ready to go to the park. Unfortunately for him, there was still over 30 minuts of practice to be had. Oy.
After practice, however, when I asked him if he had fun, he said "yes." And, after playing at the park for a bit, he was grinning and ready to play more soccer on Saturday.
I will hope for the best. At least their shouldn't be playground equipment right next to the soccer field on Saturday, right?
