It's going to be a challenge to keep the bird off the field. We finally went to a playground and skipped watching the practice.
Lucas was cute on his first day. He put on his serious face and focused on the task in front of him, most of the time. It was interesting to see how the kids approached the new sport in different ways. During one of the drills, some of the kids would just run fast and kick the ball as an after thought. Lucas focused on the ball and keeping it in front of him, but was slow. I'm sure he'll loosen up as he gets to know some of the other kids. I'm just so used to wide open, crazy Lucas that I'm always surprised to see him reserved.
Jeff is helping the coach with drills and stuff, so he's on the field and involved, but I don't think he's an official coach.

Hey, this looks awesome! Tell me how it goes. Parker and Wyatt (assistant coach - ha, he is nervous!) start soccer again next Saturday morning. Soccer does seem more age-appropriate; Parker loves it. Where did you get the cleats?
