soccer - fall 2011

 So there are a few things that I've neglected to talk about over the past few months and one of these is Soccer. One of the ladies in my ward organized a 'mini' soccer league that met together every Friday to do drills and play a game.

We only had the two teams. But let's face it, they're 4. They don't really need a lot of different people to play against. We're just trying to keep some from getting run over is all, and keeping others from running others over.... which happens to be different people every week, so ... it's almost like playing a new team anyway.

Aria I think had a really good time (I think that's an actual smile) and she learned a lot physically which I'm really proud of. The first few weeks were a little bit of a challenge. Lots of tears. But a few bribes later and she loves it and misses it terribly.

Jeff on the other hand. This was his face the WHOLE time. or there would be tears.


The Whole Gang:

For future reference: Jake, Aria, Michael, Grant, Lincoln, Shep, Cal, Spencer, Bennett and Ellie - I promise there were more girls at the beginning of the season, but I think they slowly got trampled out. :)

We love our pools. Especially with friends. Here we are trying to convince Nate he can do a front flip.

To better suit my purposes, I have decided to make this more of a journal. That's what it is anyway, but I see no reason to allow random people to see it. I am going *private* Please leave your email if you are even a casual observer at the happenings in the Pettit household. You are welcome any time. The change will happen one month from today.
