Soccer!

Ty has been waiting and waiting and waiting for soccer to start.  I got him some soccer cleats about a month ago and he has loved trying them on along with his shin guards wondering when in the world he finally would be able to use them.  He made sure to keep them nice and tidy in a little bin under his bed.  The day finally came and he was as happy as could be!

Here he is drowning in his new soccer outfit.  Check out his celestial ball.  It's only fitting the picture turned out that way- he really was that excited:

Here he is scrimmaging with his "Ty Man's"- or so he calls all his little soccer buddies:

He's only had one practice/game.  It's on Friday nights and they practice for a half hour then play for the other half.  His "team" is huge- it has over 30 kids.  Hence the parents are heavily involved.  It was a bit on the chaotic side, but I'm okay with doing it all on one night rather than having it take up 2 days out of the week.  Ty was a bit disappointed that everyone just ran to the ball in a mad dash but hey, it was only the first night!  Hopefully over the next little while he can perfect some mad soccer skills.  I'm certain he has an inner Beckham just dying to get out.

Way to go Ty Man!
