Today was Luke's first soccer game, and it was a perfect day for it! After all the cold and windy days lately, today was sunny and 70. I was so proud of the kids for getting out there and trying. It was so crazy - 18 little kids all running around, falling on each other. I have to give a shout out to our goalies for a couple of good blocks! Luke did well. He had a good kick once or twice, but towards the end got a bit tired and lagged behind the rest. He did spend a lot of time pulling at his shirt, which is way too big. At least he wasn't one of the kids that ran off the field crying, so I am proud of him! And thanks in part to the 7 year old on the team, we scored one goal and won the game. Thanks to all our fans today that made the drive to watch this high-action sporting event- Brenda, Carsyn, Nonno, Nonni, and Michael. We appreciate your support!
In other news, we've been absent from bloggerville for a while due to being busy and sick. I was knocked out most of this week with a sinus infection and the flu, and even skipped a few days of work due to it. Basketball season is winding down too. The last regular season game is a week from Tuesday, and hopefully that won't be our last game of the season though and we can get to at least one playoff game.
I'm off to join the rest of the family for nap time. We are run down and just need a rest. Have a great weekend, and I know there are many others out there feeling sick, so get well and stay healthy.

Those are great! I love the sunshine. I'm surprised the kids don't wear soccer shorts. That takes me back about 18 years. Hope you're feeling better very soon.
Great pictures. And cheers to the family members who came to support. Sorry we can't just pop over for a game. MOM
