The season is here

The sports season, that is. Jacob started spring soccer this week. And has been loving every minute of it. This is his first time to play and he has been so enthusiastic about it. He had his first game on Saturday. It really was a lot of fun to watch. Some ran the wrong way. Some used their hands. Some sat on the sidelines and wanted no part of the game. It was quite entertaining, as a first game should be I suppose.

His team, the Pirates won 7-5. And I have to brag on Jacob, he scored two of those goals himself. Yea Jacob! He played about 40 minutes of the 55 minute game and ran nonstop, hustled nonstop, and gave it his all! Mommy and Daddy were quite proud of our little guy!


He got to choose his own number. He chose #5 for the obvious reason.










Good game, good game, good game!


We are looking forward to the soccer season. Love, love, love watching our kiddos enjoy their activities so much.

  2. Oh that is so fun! I am so impressed at what a great job he did. I'm not surprised though - he seems the type to put effort into whatever he's doing! I bet he's a great leader on the team. Way to go Jacob! I love the action shots! Though I have to admit that he's looking a little too grown up for me. Sigh!

  6. I just LOVE Jacob's enthusiasm! So refreshing! I sure wish he and Connor lived close because they would be perfect little teammates together! I have to say, I am really digging Jacob's uniform - so official looking! Soccer games in the spring/fall make for such fun family activities in the nice weather. I can't wait to hear how Jacob to continues to enjoy the season, and I have no doubt he'll be the star player!!
