Soccer Season and Sixth Grade

Why, do you ask, did it take three months for me to blog again? Soccer and Sixth Grade!

Dawson, Calvin & Braden were all playing soccer on three different teams and I was there at the soccer fields many nights a week. Jon was busy with his golf team many of those nights! I have also switched from teaching Kindergarten to teaching sixth grade! I know that is a BIG jump, but I love it! The only problem is that every spare moment, it seems, is spent on dealing with planning or grading for sixth grade. Forget blogging....I'm just trying to keep everything afloat here! :)

These two pictures are of Dawson. He is the green #8. He liked to guard the goal for his team, even though they didn't have a goalie in his league. He scored two goals this season, but he didn't really LOVE soccer. At least he gave it good effort.

These two pictures are of Calvin. He is in turquoise. His team had a rough time and lost a couple of good players. He and another boy had to carry the team and he gave 110%! He loves playing and scored a goal this year, too!

These two pictures are of Braden. He is in the neon green. Braden has a lot of stamina when it comes to soccer. He never tires. He enjoys the game and can keep track of all the other teams, too. Braden's team won their division championship this year! This is his third championship trophy...one for each division he has played in. He was very excited!
