PeeWee Soccer

I’m officially a “soccer mom”. NEVER in my life did I think I’d see the day….oh it so cool!!

I was a tad hesitant to put Owen in any sports…but thought to myself…he’s gotta learn…right?!? When I picked him up from daycare today and told him it was the big soccer day he started crying…begging to NOT go to soccer!  Oh no…BUT we went (bribing him with ice cream after practice)….and DURING practice Owen said…”Mom, I LOVE this”   Watching him run around is the cutest thing ever.  Since it’s a 2-3 year old “team”…the parents help out quit a bit (actually Yosh was basically doing all the games with Owen the whole time…heehee)

Our first “team” meeting. Coach Gabe giving us parents the “be patient with your toddler speech”.

So awesome…Owen was so happy to have his bestie Addi playing on “his team” with him! The soccer field was set up like a big square with 4 goals, perimeter cones…beautiful grass field…and 19 2-3 year olds running around like crazy with their parents running after them! Oh it was so hectic yet so awesome at the same time.

First game was called Fox Tail…the kids had jersey’s tucked into their shorts hanging like a tail and they had to run while dribbling the ball from their parent while they tried pulling their “tail”. 
Daddy fixing Owen’s “tail”.

Another water break…my little soccer stud was taking the water then BACK on the field…he couldn’t get enough of it!

It was fun watching Owen sit, listen and follow directions from his Coach. I loved it…made me so proud of him!

Practice was so cute and ended with the kids running through a parent tunnel…Owen thought it was so funny…he went twice! haha

Look at that smile…I’m so satisfied with getting Owen into this program through the community. Its so fun to have a glimpse into our future of sports and stuff with him!

This picture above was like pulling teeth…they were BEGGING to get some time at the park before going out for ice cream…you’d think they’d be tired but NOPE! haha

Off they went…and TEARS to get them to leave to park and go out for ice cream…weird kids.

Here’s a 5-6 minute video I “threw” together (took me almost 2 damn hours!) haha
