Soccer Mom

The twins had their first soccer practice tonight. We picked up the soccer balls and matching shin guards and they were ready to go!

We arrived at the field and their new coach, Ms. M was there and they stretched out.




They ran some 'drills' and I use that term loosely. Basically the kids ran around the field and the coach blew her whistle once in a while.




I think we have a winner, folks. Thomas loves to run and he was so happy to find out that he gets to run and run and run some more during practice. He picked up how to stop the ball and then kick it to a partner really quickly. Watch Flash Lightening with the bright blue ball:

Stella enjoyed it too. She can kick the ball to a target very nicely and she liked the idea of doing a team sport with Thomas.



Finally, the coach had them 'scrimmage' against each other. Again, I use that term loosely:

At the end of practice we had two sweaty kiddos.

We met Lynn for dinner and the twins told her all about it. Thanks again for dinner Lynn....totally unnecessary!! Soccer was a hit!
