Indoor Soccer

After basketball ended in December, I signed both kids up for indoor soccer.  It's just for eight weeks, Saturday mornings, and it gets a few of us running around a gym for a little while.  Both kids are lukewarm about the gang, much to my surprise given both of their enjoyment of kicking things.  At their second week of games on Saturday, they both showed a little more interest.  Reina won't play without one of us holding her hand the entire time.   
She's shy, but we know it's all an act. 


I was pretty sure that Glenn was going to yank her shoulder out of the socket in his enthusiasm to get her to the ball.  The picture is shaky because I was giggling too hard.  Run Reina run! 

Reina's interest peaks at this point in the game because it's snack time! 

Will was more interested this week but he also would periodically stop mid-game to do ninja chops or boxing fists. Naturally.

Reina refused to any of the UWyo shirts handed down from her brother so we improvised. 
We had a nice three-day weekend.  The four of us went to the Cowboy basketball game and watched the Pokes knock off the #15 team in the country.  We had a great time.  Just like last year, the game ran about 5 minutes too long for the kids' attention span, but we made it out of there without any major meltdowns or barfing.  Success.
