1st Soccer Games

All right guys, I know we haven't had any practice or experience, and we don't have a clue what we're doing, so just get out there and have a blast!

Great game, guys!
Rats! How come I'm stuck on the sidelines? I'm as good as those guys, ain't I Dad?

Doin' a great job so far!



Good game, good game, good game, good game, good game, good game.....


Well, today was the first set of soccer games for Juan Pablo and Maicol. Fortunately, competition is not stressed in Upwards Soccer. The boys were only able to go to one practice before the first games. Guess that's what you call "on the job training". It was a bit cool, but they had a great time. Maicol was proud that he made a goal all by himself! Bethany was home and got to watch the games too. Grandma McCarty is going to be up from Peebles this Sunday to pick up her computer from repairman Jonathan, so all seven Bakers and Jean will be able to enjoy a nice get together.
Hope you enjoy these pictures from the games.
Have a nice weekend.

Wow. They look like they're really loving being on the field. Everything I've heard says that soccer is great for kids this age.

Just a year ago, who'd'a thunk you'd be on a soccer field on a lovely April afternoon watching your sons learn the finer points of scoring a goal?

Looks like you have a natural on the soccer field!
