Caden's First Soccer Game

It was absolutely hilarious watching 3-4 year olds play soccer for the first time.  Before the game we had a 20 minute practice which consisted of "Don't use your hands", "Kick the ball into the goal", and "Take the ball from the Blue team"  All of which are foreign concepts to our Cademan.  It was so entertaining.  Here is Caden throwing the ball from the sidelines.  
Caden loved to be the goalie (is that how you spell it?)  Nick was right there giving him step by step instructions.  
Caden not really sure what he is doing.  We are all waiting for him to kick the ball.  It took him awhile to finally kick it.  
Meanwhile, I am busy running around with this little rascal.  Nick is coaching Caden, so that leaves me to run all over with Jacks.  I tried to keep him strapped into the stroller, so I could watch the game, but that didn't last long.  
Kick it hard Caden!


This was the start of the game.  All the kids were standing still while the blue team got the ball and ran for a goal.  Caden is folding his arms.  I guess it is his turn to say the team prayer:)
Caden getting coaching and support from his daddy.  It was so funny half of the team was on the sidelines not even playing.  

I think Caden's favorite part was the treats after the game.  He keeps talking about his blue drink(squeeze-it) and his rice krispy treat that he scarfed down.  

Good game Caden.  Mommy and Daddy are so proud of you.
