Gooooooaaaaal!!

Justin tried out for and made the JV soccer team! We are proud of his hard work and dedication during the month of conditioning and tryouts. As you can imagine, there was a LOT of running involved during tryouts.

Yesterday we attended his first home game. Despite the sunny pictures, it was FREEZING. I'm surprised the snow (from the day before) had melted off the field!

Armed with snacks and blankets, I trekked to the sidelines with the "two littles" in tow. We made it through the first half, but retreated to the warmth of the van at halftime.

Jason, Sarah and I left the game a little early to get dinner started, and as I was driving home I got a call from my husband, who was still at the game.

"Justin scored a goal!"

Awesome!!!

And isn't that how it goes sometimes? We left just in time to miss "the goal." :(

Oh, well-- there will be more games.. and hopefully spring is just around the corner!

And yes, the home team WON!
