Ethan had his first soccer practice on Sunday afternoon. This year he is playing on a team with his best friend Henry. His team is called Cheetahs. The coach this year is excellent. He did a really good job of bonding with the kids - a good strategy to get them to pay attention. He also had a lot of fun games for the kids to play to learn the different soccer skills. Here is a picture of the team doing some warm up drills. It was a really hot day almost 100 degrees and pretty humid. The kids were good sports to stay out there for an hour long practice.
The picture on the top left is of Ethan and Henry listening to the coach as he explains the next game they are going to play. You can tell the kids are listening intently.

After soccer practice, we headed over to Henry's house for pizza and birthday cake for Henry's dad Tony. Before we went home, all of the kids took baths and got into their PJs. Here is a picture of the boys, and Henry's sister, Ella.
