Soccer Practice

Tonight was Wylie's third soccer practice. They played a scrimmage against one of the other teams. Wylie is doing great in soccer. This was the first practice he did with his new shin guards and cleats. I think it really helped him run better.

Here Wylie is pointing down the field to let us know what direction he is going to kick the ball...

Go, Wylie, go!!
He looks determined to get that ball...

Ashley goofing off with one of the soccer balls...she is dying to play soccer with Wylie. It is hard for her to just stand on the sidelines.

Open House at Wylie & Ashley's Preschool

This morning was the Open House at Wylie and Ashley's preschool. They got to see their classrooms and meet all their friends. Ashley did great...I think she is going to love preschool.

Wylie's First Soccer Practice!

Tonight was Wylie's first soccer practice. I was so impressed with him...he did a great job. He went after the ball, although, he wasn't too sure what to do with it once he got it. He is very excited about playing soccer, and I think he will improve quickly and learn how to play because of that.

Here he is doing some exercises with the soccer ball, learning how to control the ball...
