an all about Lane weekend...
when you are in the middle of three boys, you sometimes just have to go with the flow. you are not the boss and you are not the baby. this weekend, our little lane was everything! he was happy, excited, silly, fun, an athlete, a good friend, a superstar to say the least. we left baby with granny and headed to 'the city' for the Turkey Shootout soccer tournament with the cutest bunch of 5 year olds around. they ate at Toby Keith's, they rode the bricktown canal, they had ice cream, snow cones, kettle corn, swam at the hotel, jumped on the beds...i could go on all night. lane scored 6 goals and played some killer defense. his team went on to win the tournament! 6 and under champs!!! they have basically dominated the regular season aside from one team who they really had some good competition with and ended up losing one game by one. we came to the tournament not knowing how they would hold up in a different town and knowing we have a pretty young team...all but one are 5. they won every game and the scores sound more like football scores. in the last game they needed 17 points to beat the points total of another team from another bracket that was their same age. they scored 22 points. go Pride!! that other team had allowed 17 goals all tournament and we only allowed 9, so i think it is fair to say that they ROCK!!!!! :) yes, i am a PROUD soccer mom! our friends from 'the city' came to watch him and he was feeling very special to have guests, not to mention another amazing highlight...some of the team wanted to ride in our van, which is the right team color and offers movies! oh, to be 5 :) i thank God for my lane (and all my other boys who i get to share this wonderful life with)
awesome new warm-ups and a back-up black uni and socks in case we clash with the other team! thanks to a gracious donor parent!!
our coaches are amazing and love these boys! we also got a new popup bench...they all have their own backpacks. i've said it before - we look like little david beckhams. blue mohawks and all! :) Go Pride!

how adorable is that? i was talking to mandi last night and she told me the scores....i said this is chase's soccer team, right? for a minute i thought she meant chance and his football team!
they do look like a lot of beckhams...whatever it takes because they are AWESOME and they DOMINATE!
i think it's adorable that you are the mini-van driving soccer mom too! who wouldn't want to ride with you? : )
