Soccer ball game (as Briggs calls it)


Guess who had his first game of the soccer season yesterday???  And guess who scored a goal!?!  Okay the first one is Ben, the second is totally not!  But he did kick the ball a few times. He's playing on the same team with the same coach. It really was amazing to see the improvements the team as a whole has made since their first game last season. Maybe Ben will catch up soon :). 
Besides playing on a different field for some reason, we get to enjoy the scorching heat that will not go away!  I was actually looking forward to 8:00 games this time, but we have none!  
It's still painful for us to watch Ben be so passive out there. I swear if we put Briggs out there and moved it to our house Ben would be ALL over the ball trying to keep it from Briggs. And he has a little rash on his bum so he spent a good part of the game standing there scratching it. Sigh...
Hopefully Ben will start to feel comfortable out there and show us the crazy kid we know he is. Sadly though, I think he's going to be like both his parents when it comes to performing in front of lots of people. Briggs may be our shining star in that :)
Just chillin' before he was due back on the field :)
