Aidan's team struggled from the very beginning. They played in a league a year older than they are and lost all three games. One game they lost 11 - 1. That is something we are quickly trying to forget. Their team didn't get as much practice time in as Tristan's did and they never worked well on the field as a team should. Because this is a team made up of 12 boys from six different teams we saw a bunch of "all stars" that would never pass the ball to another person. Except my Aidan of course! He stayed in his position at all times and was never selfish, he passed the ball constantly. We were so proud!

Tournament weekend
Well, we spent another weekend in Denver for a soccer tournament. This one a bit better than the previous. Tristan's team won all three games and was in first place going into the semi-final. Unfortunately they were creamed in the semis! Honestly, I think this was a result of the boys spending the entire day at the park and not getting away to rest. They hardly ran and looked exhausted at their 1 p.m. game.

It's incredible how much I can look at these pics and get to the bottom and instantly smile back at those smiling faces. Thanks for a good wake up this morning. :)
My pleasure! Thanks so much for sharing Ani's pictures with me also. It means a lot to us to know you appreciated the gifts and effort we put into it! I love ya!
I have to tell you that I have never seen a toothbrush like that and you can really hear the song when you put it in your mouth. I was amazed! Ha! :)
I'm sure the boys tried hard and should be proud of how far they made it. Great pics!
