Soccer boys

Soccer season is about to begin here.
For Tyler it will begin next week and will continue on for the next 10 months.

The boys are practicing juggling with the soccer ball. One thing that we learned from Coach Adrian (Tyler's U9 soccer coach) was how important juggling is because it helps the kids with ball control. That is how the beginning of every practice started with Coach Adrian.
Reed was told that he had to juggle the ball twice before he could practice shooting at our backyard goal. He did and was so excited!!!

Reed is super excited about playing soccer again. He played soccer Fall '09 and Spring '10. Then took a break and played t-ball all last year. Eric bought cleats, a soccer ball and shin guards for him this weekend. His soccer cleats are very cool because you can change the color of the Nike swoosh on the outside of the cleat. I will have to try to get a picture of that. Right now he has one yellow and one green. Red is his favorite color and that is why he got a red ball. Soccer for him will not start until the beginning of September, hopefully he doesn't break in his shoes too much that he needs a new pair before then. :0}
