Medal Winner.

My sweet Harry played his little heart out at soccer on Wednesday night.  We were short a couple of players, so he pretty much played the whole game...and very literally gave it everything he had.


Babe did a decent job, too.  She warmed up well and even played a little bit, but she was not a big fan of the orange soccer ball used to actually play the game.  She prefers the white.

The Meddlers didn't pull out the win, but Harris brought home a much-deserved medal. 


There's a lot to be said for earning recognition for hard work.  I couldn't be prouder of my little guy!

The FC Meddlers.

It's hot outside, which can only mean one thing:  it's time for soccer!  Harris and Hadley have been beside themselves excited for the last few days and (for the most part) had a great time kicking the ball around last night.



We've got a great little team in The Meddlers, and, for the second season in a row, two fantastic coaches.  We're slightly bummed that Coach Britton and Quinn didn't return for a second season, but are super proud of Coach Shane for filling in the gap.  Just look at this team warming up!


Just like t-ball, it's been incredible to see what a difference a year makes.  Harris ran his little heart out last night and came really, really close to scoring a couple of goals.  We had a few tears toward the very end, but I can't say that I blame him.  Did I mention it was hot?!?!




Homegirl had a pretty good showing herself.  She is, of course, in love with her shin guards, and enjoys kicking the ball into the net as well.  She got a little confused when it was her turn to throw the ball in; she couldn't figure out why everyone else was kicking it away from her and got a little upset, but I'm expecting big things from her this season.



It was a great start to the beginning of a very hot season.

And by hot, of course, I'm referring to the heat.  Just in case you were confused by the following picture.
