So THAT'S Why We Bought the Van!

Hey, it's me.... the soccer mom! Yep, we finally got the kids involved with organized sports, and for the most part, they are enjoying it. A flier was sent home from school with Rose advertising an upcoming soccer league at the local indoor soccer arena. The flier touted "All Games.... No Boring Practices...." and best of all.... "No Experience Required." Sounded right up our alley, so I called and signed them all up. David and Joey are on the same team, the Mavericks, in youngest division. Rose is on the M&M's in the next division up. The boys do a lot more watching their shadows, looking in the stands and wrestling each other (when they are on the field together which the coach figured out not to do).....but hey, they are out there getting some exercise! Rose really does try.... but it's hard when you don't really know what you are doing. Fortunately for her, there are a few really good players on her team. They have won all the games they have played. Now the boys team.... fortunately they don't keep score for that level. They are out there enjoying it, and that's all that matters...... Oh come on, winning is really what it's all about! GO MAVERICKS & M&M's!!!!! Oh, and with the money we spent to have them in the league, you would figure we could at least get some shirts that FIT!
