A Good Laugh...

If you are ever in need of a good laugh, attend a soccer game where the players on the field are between the ages of 4 and 5...absolutely hysterical. As you may remember, I volunteered to be the coach of Carter's team due to the fact his team had no coach...so...let's just say that my husband volunteered...scratch that....has been forced to take over the reins. I am helping at practice, but I'm leaving the coaching up to him.

Since we received an email on Wednesday that the league was adding 6 more kids to our roster...insane...not everyone has a uniform yet, so we were forced to improvise. The instructions were to have your child wear a red T-shirt and black shorts....that is not at all what Carter showed up in from his dad's house. We looked like the most ghetto team on the field, but the kids...and adults...had a blast! Here are a few of the highlights:


Don't you like Carter's "outfit/uniform"?! When his dad brought him, all I could do was shake my head. This picture is so symbolic of a pre-k soccer game..."That's our goal down there!"..."No, it's that one down there!"...We ended up "giving" the other team 2 goals.

My precious little boy...Every time he came over to the sidelines he would ask me, "Mom, are the yellow guys the bad guys?"


You must view this one...It perfectly captures Carter's craziness on the field...I could not stop laughing. It was the sweetest sight to see him having so much fun...oh...and he finally realizes there is actually a game going on around him!

These poor little boys had never done the whole hand-slap thing after the game...The coaches told them to stay on the line, and they took it literally and all tried...both teams at the same time...to stay right on the line...They just stood there looking at each other while the coaches tried to persuade them to move. Classic...
