Spring Soccer


Carter and his team, the Mighty Ducks, wrapped up another season of soccer just a couple weeks ago. One of the moms told me they were undefeated. Who knew? I cannot keep score. I am always asking someone if we won. It's not that I don't pay attention, it's just that I really don't care about the score. I think it's so fun to watch these little boys play and have fun. This is Carter's third season with this same team. And there has only been one change in team members so it's been fun to get to know the other families. Carter has a great time playing and he has improved so much over the last year. He does not lead the team in goals, but when he does score, it is so fun to watch! He always gives a thumbs-up our way and raises his arms in the air to celebrate. Not a humble player is he? Carter is #3 on his team and on two occasions he was able to score 3 times in a game. That was the ultimate for him. He would show everyone his number on his jersey and then explain that he scored 3 times. At this year's team party, Carter was awarded a trophy and the "Joy" award for exhibiting sheer joy whenever he was able to score a goal for the team. Congratulations Carter on another successful and fun season!!

Oh that is awesome. We wish we could have seen him play, I bet it was classic as is always the case when Carter is around. I just get a kick out of him. Way to go Carter. We hope you had fun and enjoyed it.
