Soccer Stud

Today was the day that Peter has been awaiting for at least a year.  He was SO excited to play in his first real soccer game!  He is playing in a U-5 league for 4-year-olds with a simplified format.  They spend the first 20 minutes working on drills with their buddies (Casey is Peter's buddy) and doing warm-ups, etc...  Then they break them into random teams of 6 for the last part and have them play 3-on-3 for five minutes at a time.  It was so cute to watch him on the field!  He had some really good ball control and came pretty close to scoring a goal a couple times.  He also gets a little distracted and likes to smile at his fans.  Today he had a large group of die-hard fans (10 of us) who braved the bitterly cold wind to cheer him on.  Hopefully the rest of the season will be warmer!  We are very proud of our little buddy and look forward to watching him play and have fun this spring.
