A Big First!



We have entered a new stage in life...sports! James is now old enough to play soccer, and he got on his first soccer team today! Josh and our friend, James, will be his coaches, and they got some of their good buddies from church on their team, too! James could hardly wait to go get his soccer gear after the draft, so we picked up Thomas and headed over to Academy to get him all set! It was the cutest thing how excited he was. I have never seem him like this and loved how he giggled almost non-stop while trying on his cleats. As soon as we got home, he had to try it all on together, stood and posed for the camera for a while (very unlike him), and went straight outside to "practice"! I could tell he felt so big and just couldn't wipe the grin off his face! Afterwards, he had to call Uncle Michael, who has been a lifelong soccer player, and tell him all about it. I am excited to start practice in a week, and we can hardly wait for his first game!

I think we're planning on signing Creighton up for soccer next year. I can't wait. Maybe James wants to come teach him some little lessons before then! So cute.
