Out with a Bang!

C played his last soccer game tonight (for this season anyway).  Their team actually has two more games, but we will be out of town, so tonight was C's last hurrah.  They won 1-0, which brings their grand total to 4 wins, 1 tie, and 1 loss.  They really have improved a lot since the beginning of the season, which I mostly attribute to the week they were coached by some of the dads!  (That was the week C scored a goal in the game!)

I don't think you can see it very well in this picture, but that look of annoyance/disgust on our coach's face is pretty much standard.  As I've mentioned before, they have no kids, and as the season has progressed it's become pretty obvious that they don't even like kids.  Just yesterday at practice C went up to the assistant coach (the wife) and tried to hug her and she was like, "No, no just go over there to the coach."  They came back from their cruise (the week they were gone) and she gushed about how awesome, quiet, and "kid-free" the adult deck was on their ship.   They are also the first to leave after every practice and game.  Many of us parents have long suspected that they signed up to coach just to get "community involvement" points to help their chances of promotion.  I leaned over to my friend during practice last night and asked if she knew that they are Russian linguists with the Navy.  She goes, "That explains it."  Lol! 

The next one I snapped right after he had almost scored.  He must've known we had been cheering for him, check out the smug look he's giving the camera.

Ah, I wish I would've had time to zoom out on this next one...great action shot!

Picking a wedgie on the go.  I actually found two more pictures of him doing that!  Maybe I need to assess his underwear situation.  Ha!

Taking a break. 

He and his friend, Nano, warming the bench together.

Love this one!

We went to the newly opened Yogi Castle to celebrate the end of his first soccer season!
