Cole's Debut Soccer Game

Well, his day had finally come. Cole was ready to play in his first soccer game. It took him about a week to get over the fact that he was not going to be playing on Reid's team. He didn't understand why they couldn't be on the same team. But we worked through that, and it was his turn.

He lined up like such a big boy out there with Coach Dad.
Then he was somewhat listening to Coach Dad's pep talk and advice! I think he already knew what Coach was going to say.
The next step...Coach asks everyone where's the goal?? Cole was ready to point the direction he needed to go. At least he knew which direction to kick that ball.
And what do you know? He kicked that ball! Yes, it's a pink ball. They played an all girl team and the girls wanted to use their pink ball. The poor boys on Cole's team!
All in all, he had a great time playing soccer and was already looking forward to the next game. He is slowly getting himself into the game. He will do things in his own time. But in the meantime, he sure looks cute out there in his uniform running after that ball and kicking it when he can.

Okay, the pic with Cole facing Bryan is sooo cute! I love that the kiddos' shin guards take up their whole legs. So cute!
