Grant started soccer last week and had his first game yesterday! He is playing with the YMCA and all of the games are at the Y in McAdenville so it is super convenient. He has games every Monday night and Saturday morning for the next 4 weeks. His team name is the Blasters and he is #3. There are 6 kids total on each team and they play 3 on 3 during the games. We weren't really sure what to expect with the game, but Grant and his team did surprisingly well! They basically just kick the ball up and down the field and try to score goals. Grant scored 3 goals!! We were all so excited! They don't really keep score, but his team definitely scored the most goals. It was a really fun evening and Grant couldn't be more excited about being on a soccer team. It's hard for me to believe that my little man is grown up enough to actually play on a sports team. I have the feeling that last night was the first of many, many sporting events to come and I am really looking forward to that!

Showing some skill:)
This was right after Grant scored his first goal (which was the first goal that his team scored during the game)!
Going for the ball
Kicking the ball down the field...
and about to score another goal!
Taking a breather and cheering on his team from the sidelines

Just a little yawn...all of this running makes a boy tired!
Lining up to shake hands with the other team at the end of the game. Great game Blasters!
