Spencer and the Little Eagles



Spencer had his very first ever soccer practice tonight. He has been looking forward to this for so long and he was so excited! He had a smile on his face from the second I put his little shin guards and cleats on, to the time he went to bed tonight. Look how super cute he is dressed in his practice clothes! He doesn't have a uniform yet, but when he does, you better believe I will have pictures posted soon after =) Not only does he look good, but he did really great at his practice too! He is probably the youngest on the team, but he looked like a little pro out there. (well, as pro as a 3 year old can be) Though, after watching David play for the past couple years, he is no stranger to the soccer ball. David's coaches would sometimes let Spencer participate in their practices, and Chad takes the kids to practice their sports often, so he really does do pretty well! David was real cute during the practice too. He was standing on the sidelines trying to verbally coach Spencer. He is a proud big brother and feels like he can share some of his soccer skills with his little brother. Grandma and Papa even came to watch him for his first practice. We all know how long he has been waiting for his turn! I am so excited to watch his games and see his excitement for finally being on his own little sports team! The Little Eagles first game is the second weekend in September, so more posts to come!


David really is just so proud!



After practice, grandma and papa treated us to Arby's for dinner. While waiting for our food, Spencer practiced writing his name. Some of his letters are backwards, but he did a GREAT job! My smart little soccer player!

Well, that's just the cutest thing ever! I love the pic of him kicking the ball. He really does look like he's played before!
