Soccer Update



Henry finally scored his first soccer goal during his last indoor soccer game last week. I wasn't there, but Nathan says he looked surprised when the ball rolled into the goal. After that, Henry couldn't concentrate on the game - he chased his teammates around the court to ask, "Did you see my goal?"
Elliot also scored his first goal! The teams in his soccer league play two seasons together, so he's been playing with the same boys since last fall. They've had about 10 games total and Elliot was the only one on his team who hadn't scored a goal in a game. Well, last week, Josh was dribbling the ball towards the goal when he saw Elliot run up next to him. Josh stepped away from the ball and Elliot took over and took the shot. Gooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllll!
Way to go guys!
I have to mention, Elliot's team is still undefeated. Henry has started outdoor soccer as well - there's been two games and two practices so far, but because of SNOW, he hasn't even been able to put on his cool red and white uniform. Bummer.
