More Soccer Firsts

Brenden had another soccer game this Saturday morning. This was actually his first game in awhile since we had Easter weekend and then strep that prevented him from playing the past 2 weeks. He was very excited not only about his game and getting to "run and kick that ball", he was also excited about the individual pictures...



and the team pictures....
Unfortunately, Brooke couldn't be there for this game because she was participating in a walk in Greensboro at the same time. However, Nana took lots of pictures and video footage for her to look at when she got back home. It's obvious from the videos and pictures that Brenden has improved with his soccer skills recently...



He is doing much better with chasing the ball....




Keeping up with the pack...


Drinking lots of fluids during the breaks....



















listening to "the coach"...



















Participating as a team player...



















Oh yeah, and this......




We're so proud of him (yes, it was on the wrong goal, and yes he did celebrate like a professional soccer player, and yes-Mommy was not there to witness this first goal...but we're still SUPER excited about this for him!) This sports experience has been all about Brenden and what we thought would be best for him, so to see him succeed, to see him enjoy, to see him try...WE'RE VERY PLEASED!!!!!
