Soccer and More

Well, I lost motivation to clean the blinds and windows so I'm going to keep posting...

Colin had soccer games on Wednesday and Thursday night while we were home!


Nathan was still napping and I didn't want to wake him up since I knew he needed the sleep so I went myself.  But I missed the whole first half and Colin's goal!! What kind of aunt am I?  Proud of him anyway.  Here he is with his friend Taylor.


Family pic!




GOAL!!!


Proud parents.


This picture totally reminds me of soccer pictures of David in highschool.  He played on defense and had the biggest boot out there!  He would clear the ball far and his leg would go way up in the air like this!




Get ready for the best part of the night!


Parent bridge!

This is Colin's friend, Ben.

And here comes Colin!


When I got home I found Nathan and Pappy up on the deck.  Apparently, dad had just gone up to wake him when he got home from work!  He had a very LONG nap and was still not ready to be up.


That's why he still has his monkey.


He perked up though with being outside.  He is an outdoorsman.  He liked copycatting Pappy while he worked.  Pulling weeds.

I love this one.

:)


I'm taking this picture from inside the house.


They are cute.


Another day when Pappy was at work Nathan walked around the deck and went to these exact same places.




Nathan decided to be a climber that week (more on this later).  Here he is throwing a let up into the toy box and letting the rest of him fall inside.


It seemed to work for him.


Getting back out.


Getting ready for bed.




Age and I picked Colin up from school on Thursday.  They have a system where if the child sees their parent, they slap their teachers hand and run to their mom or dad.  If not, they have to go back through the line.




Age waving for one of Colin's friends to come with her.


Nathan made it for this game!

We were glad the rain held off.



Colin throwing in.


Hustlin'


Nathan wanted to show Colin the matchbox cars Age brought for him during Colin's break.


Pappy came too!


Some of the girls on Colin's team were quite impressive!




Nathan was happy to run around the field during halftime.


He dribbled better than I expected!






This is Colin's coach.  She is so nice!  She was teaching Nathan to dribble and score a goal!


He did score.  He fell over the ball and into the net afterward...but he did score :)










Attempt at a pic with my son and nephew.


Best we're going to get!


Awww...cousins.


Ha ha.  Poor Colin!


Packing up to go.


Playing after.














Dinner and ice cream after!


My son won't eat any other ice cream but liked Age's mint chocolate chip!  Go figure.
