So, Jon's first official soccer game was last Tuesday. He scored 3 goals that game! He has games every Tuesday night and Saturday mornings and practice on Wednesday nights. This past Saturday Papa and Grandma came up to watch his game. His game was at 9am and everyone was excited to watch him play. He did a really good job! We keep on telling him to be more aggressive and to try to take the ball away from the players from the opposite team. We told him to watch this one boy from the other team while he was sitting out one quarter and I think he kinda got it after watching him. Not everyone from his team had showed up so he got to play a lot on Saturday. For the 1st quarter he played defense and he did a good job keeping the ball on the other side of the line so his offense could score (if they are on offense or defense they can only be on either side of the mid line). The second quarter he played goalie and he did really good! No one scored a goal on him! The 3rd quarter he sat out and in the 4
th quarter he played offense. He ended up scoring 2 goals this game! Below are some pictures from Saturdays game. Enjoy!
Right when we got to the field. He was starting to warm up!

He looks like a natural! Too bad Mike and I know nothing about soccer! :)
