Gray first took a turn as the defender of his team and he was great! He loves to give that ball a big ol' kick.
Go Gray! He really follows the ball and runs hard.
The cheering section was pretty big today!
Nothing like a back scratch while you're sitting on the bench.
This picture was a request for Jeannie. Nice shirt Daddy!
Happy boy! This guy got his first goal in a soccer game!!
One down, one to go. We headed over to Joshua's game...and the shade.
Joshua brought his A game and was pretty relentless.
He scored goal after goal after goal.
On the last play of the game, he did pass to a teammate instead of taking it himself:) We are definitely new to being sports parents and it's hard to know how to help him be a little selfless without curbing his enthusiasm and intensity. Good thing he's only 6 and we don't have to figure it all out right now!
The poor little goalie for the other team kept crying when he missed one of Joshua's many score attempts.
After the game, we got ice cream. And there was a fountain. And it was dirty. And the boys were quite intrigued by it. One even drank some water from it. And they kept leaning in. Then, as if in slow motion, Joshua fell in...all of him. Didn't know whether to laugh hysterically, feel bad for him, or be grossed out by the dirty water all over him. On that note, we headed home! Fun day, though!!

Those were really good pictures. We had a great time at the soccer games and eating ice cream. (thanks to Barnette). Can't say that I'm surprised about Joshua falling into the fountain. Perhaps he needed to cool down his leg after scoring all of those goals.
Wow, I'm impressed by both boys! Guess I'll have to come to you for advice when J & G start playing sports...
Joshua didn't look too sad about falling in-too funny!
