Our ward and Richmond 2 (we are in Richmond 1) joined to do a soccer league for three age groups. I see posts from cousins about soccer and it makes me feel ill. It's so much practicing and sitting in the heat--this one started in October and went through last Saturday (just 6 weeks) and it's a little practice followed by a little game--all on a Saturday morning. PERFECT! Eli loved it (never got tired of it or burned out) and it's FREE! And stress free. We were so glad to participate. Plus the girls had fun at the park and I had fun seeing all my friends from church. Win, win win!
Here's Eli getting some instruction.
Big Girl Emmy walking up a storm... With double fisted capri suns. Silly kid!
Drinking her spoils. Note the UT chair. Never can start the indoctrination too early. Haha. Seriously though, Whit got an A&M one for him and a UT one for me. And he got my mom an LSU one that turned out to be a kid chair. Dora says that one is hers. Geaux tigers?
Eli is in the back. He's always waiting for someone to "pass" him the ball. Apparently there was much discussion of this move. It's not been often executed. I don't think he's well suited to bunch ball. Maybe he will shine a bit more next year as people get a little more ... pass-y.
Emmy walking around town. That kid. :-) So happy she's finally on the move. (On her feet, not shuffling on her knees).
Okay, this was the shot of the month for sure and Whit got it. Can you just feel the glee Eli's got here as his name is called for his medal? Good grief, that's one excited kid.
Proud as punch. We sure love you Eli. :-) No photos of Dora. She spends all her time chasing puppies to pet and at the "playground" about 100 yards away.

Such a good idea - a perfect soccer opportunity for Eli - especially this year when you had so much going on. Love the shot of the year - Eli bounding over to get his medal!
