Upward Soccer

  Early this year, we signed Holden up to play soccer on the Upward Soccer team affiliated with our church and he loved it!  I never imagined how cute it would be to watch your child run up and down the field in a group of kids fighting over the ball!  Holden tired of that soon since the kids were a bit older than he was (he had just turned 4 and some of the kids were at least 5 1/2), so he became the star goalie of his team!  He really kicked the ball out with such force, it was such a treat to watch his determination to make sure the other team didn't get a goal!



Holden's ready for his first game!  He insisted on tucking in his shirt.


I love this picture of the three of them sitting on the bench.  Rhys just HAD to have a jersey like Holden's and loved to play with him on the sidelines when Holden wasn't playing, or after the game.



Skipping back to the goal! 


He took his goalie position seriously.


The game was probably going on during this discussion!  Ha!


Rhys wants to be just like his brother!  The Bob the Builder boots are what makes this outfit.  Who knew they could double as soccer cleats!


After the game, Rhys always wanted to get on the field to play!


I think we'll have to see if we can sign Rhys up one year early for the team!  He loved watching Holden play this year!  We'll see!!!

  I can't wait for the Upward soccer season again!  It was so much fun to watch.  Holden asks all the time when will it start next year, so I'm glad to know that he really enjoyed it.  

  Next up...the End of the Year Celebration at the preschool!
