Soccer mom!

Well, I've officially become a soccer mom! I even have the van to prove it! Tonight was Jacob's first ever soccer game. He is playing on the Junior High team for Sunrise Christian Academy, although he's only in the 5th grade. There were only 10 official junior high boys in 6-8th grades to go out so they invited the 5th graders to try out. There were 6 so they kept them all on the team. I didn't even know that Jacob was even interested in soccer....too much running if you as me! While I was in Guatemala the end of August, he tried out and made the team. He has been practicing almost every night until almost 6pm. They played a team from out of town that had 50 kids on the roster. They even had girls! All of them in the 8th grade. We didn't win, but Jacob got to play most of the "A" game and all of the "B" game. He didn't think he would get to play at all! He made several good "head shots" and dribbled pretty good! We were proud! I'll attach pics. Our boys are in the Yellow Jerseys, since both teams were burgandy and white!
