Simon's First Soccer Game

Simon had his first soccer game today. It was so much fun. Being the proud momma that I am, I of course though he was the cutest kid on the field! He did a really great job kicking the ball and trying to steal it from the other team. He even made a goal! He was just thrilled to death.
It's kinda funny to watch them because there are five kids from each team running around in a big herd, trying to kick the ball. They don't have goalies, and they don't keep score. Most of the kids don't even know what direction they are supposed to be kicking the ball. It was absolutely hilarious! Buddy sure was a good little player though. He is so excited for his next game. And frankly, I think it's worth the $40 to let him play, just for the entertainment value!

After he made his goal:

His shoe kept falling off (at one point he was running around trying to kick the ball, while holding his shoe):

Nolan will be playing in Taylorsville. West Jordan's Pre-K is only for kids who are at least four years old.
