The Gibb Fam: Tanner's 1st Soccer Game

I couldn't be more proud that Tanner is playing my sport - SOCCER!! I played in high school and couldn't wait until he was old enough to play. This year he made it by 1 day. He has practice once a week on Thursdays for like an hour and a game every Saturday for 6 weeks. He has some friends on his team which makes it even more fun for him. It was so fun to watch this first game. Just a field of 4 year olds running up and down the field sometimes running to the wrong goal, or running off the field at any moment to get a drink, some crying when they fall, sitting on the grass when they feel like it (you will see a pic of that one below :)). It was so cute. I have to admit it was a little hard for me with my competitiveness in sports when he would just run around the field and not going after the ball. But he is so stinkin cute and doing a great job. He LOVES to run. Not sure where he got that.....ok, I do know :) He had a lot of fun and their team won 3-0 i think. Anyway with this age it's all about having fun and not keeping score. I tell Tanner - just go out and have fun and GO AFTER THAT BALL...haha! He had his 2nd game this last Saturday and I missed it due to participating in Red Barn which will be my next post. Nate said he did much better at going after the ball and almost made a goal. It's so fun to get your kids involved in sports and to practice with them at home. Way to go Tanner!! Jocie even had some fun. It was hard to keep her off the field. She wanted to play too.
