Thunder Storm

Saturday was Soccer's Opening Day. Audrey belongs to "Blue Thunder" and Carter is a proud member of "Storm". Sounds like some pretty tough teams wouldn't you say?!

The night before the big day Dave was getting the kids uniforms together and Brady would follow him from room to room saying, "me to, me to". Brady gave that heartbreaking look that said he would be crushed if he was the only one left out. Super Dad Dave came up with the perfect idea - let him wear Carter's old uniform. I died laughing when he ran into the room looking like he was ready for kick off. Surprisingly it wasn't too giant on him and he was smiling from ear to ear! Brady truly believes he is an official soccer player. The kids thought he needed a team name so it was decided he is the lone member of the "Mint Chip Maniacs".

Saturday morning came and all three kids dressed in uniform and brought water bottles to the games. It was a good start to the next few months. They all had a great time running hard and playing with new team members. If you ask Brady he had fun in his "game" and even scored 2 goals.
