soccer!

There can be few things funnier to watch than 4- and 5- year olds playing soccer. They kind of swarm the ball, no concept of teamwork or passing, just a flat out rumble to get a foot on the ball. Kids are toppling left and right. The coaches are constantly having to yell "other way, OUR goal is the OTHER WAY!!"

The last night of soccer, they had a kids vs. parents game. Helen was allowed to play on the parents team- she held Tim's hand through the whole thing which was kind of adorable. She was pretty good, too, I think she will be a force to be reckoned with when she can officially join in next year!

Never one to be forgotten or left out, Thomas craftily tried to sneak into the action with an army crawl...
