Skating, Soccer, Scooters, Swings

It was a super-sized Saturday for the Sandidge household. Reagan began ice skating lessons this morning, Cooper had his first soccer game, we went shopping, came home to ride scooters and swing on the swingset.  Again, lots of pictures (but considering I took over 300, I narrowed it down pretty good!)

1st skating lesson

 Cooper was intense during the game

 kicking the ball in-bounds

 playing defense

 look at those skills!

 taking the ball away from the other team

 He outran everyone on the field

 Cooper scored 3 goals in his very first game...he also had 3 assists!

 Cooper and his partner Will - they were quite a pair

 Home to ride scooters

 and bikes

 Cooper has finally mastered "pumping" his legs

 they were having a contest to see who could go the highest

 Reagan picked flowers from the neighbor's yard...oops

 practicing soccer skills

Obviously, Greg took Reagan to ice skating practice ~ thus the lack of pictures.  We'll trade off next week, so I'll take a few more pictures of Reagan!!



Soccer is in Season

The soccer season began tonight for Cooper.  He had played a little in pre-school, but wanted to try it out for real.  He did so well to have never played before.  I wish I was one of those people who can publish a few pictures and be satisfied, but I'm not...so prepare yourself for an abundance of pictures!

running for warm ups

learning to dribble the ball

a kick and a miss!

so handsome

they had to kick the ball around the field and kick over a cone.  Once they kicked the cone, they were to dribble back to the start line and place the cone there.

the phantom fan - Reagan couldn't see her Kindle screen in the sunlight!

determination on his face

more cone work

scrimmage time

he played so well

Cooper is going to do so well this season.  I can't wait to watch him learn!
