The Last Game

Caleb's soccer team has been together for two years now.  They are affectionately known as the "Blue Goo" (isn't that a great team name?).  But this past weekend was their last game.  Next year they will be moving on to new teams and new teammates.  Breaking up is hard to do.  It has been so fun to watch these boys grow together-- both in height and skills.

You could say that spring soccer is overrated in Utah-- practically every game was FREEZING!  Thank goodness for a beautiful final game to leave us with a good taste in our mouths. 

Here are some of Caleb's best action shots (from the final game--the only one with good enough weather to take pictures!):
 

 (Actually, the goalie doesn't ever get much action but Caleb enjoys a little time by the net)



 Take note: in order to have a really good shot you have to have your tongue hanging out!

 It's been a great two years!

The Championship Game

Brooke's soccer team made it all the way to the finals in their division.

The girls all came early to warm up and get last minute instructions from coach.
They checked in with the referees,
And played hard

Nana and grandpa even came to watch.
The team played extremely well. But their opponents were formidable, and in the end it wasn't quite enough.


They took second place amidst cheers from the parents. We're so proud of them. Hooray for a great soccer season!
What a cute group of girls!
