it's soccer time again!

soccer season is here again.

ready or not.
today was a beautiful, sunny day and it was a perfect day to watch my baby boys play soccer. ok. maybe they're not actually baby boys anymore, but they still are to me!
we made sure that they did their devotions before we left, and got their armor all put on.
daddy prayed with them as we drove in to the field, and then we reminded them to let their light shine!
after all, no matter how many goals they score, the most important part is remembering that we make it our goal to please God!

ry was first with a game at 9.

we had a huge buch of fans to cheer him on (the curriers, ruthie, sarah b were all a part of ry's little fan club!)

oh, and just to let you know. all the pictures from soccer will most likely be somewhat blurry. see. i have this nervous energy everytime my boys play. i get all excited and into the game. i am not a totally super like get kicked off the field kind of crazy momma, but i do get excited!

wouldn't you? ry DID score 4 goals today in their 6-0 win. maybe i am just a little tiny bit proud!

then it was on to aj's game. there was a brief moment or two of panic, when i realized it was 9:59, aj's game started at 10:00, but i was so into riley's game that i was not thinking. aj didn't have his shin guards, socks or cleats on.
and oh ya...his soccer socks were AT HOME!!!
that is so not like me, and i did not know what i was going to do!
luckily, adam is the head coach and he had an extra pair of game socks in his bag, since one of aj's team mates wasn't going to make it to the game today.
stress-central. but it all worked out.

aj started out great with a goal pretty early on

yep...he scored!

aj ended up with 4 goals, and 2 assists in his 6-0 win also!
and aje and ry LOVED the fact that they both had 4 goals today. they are amazing little boys with some mad skills!

i am so proud of them for their talents, for their hard work, and for their love for God. i am so blessed.
