The very, very end of spring soccer (in June)

It's raining, pouring actually.  

Kind of reminds me of those pop-up Florida showers.  

This rain will do nothing for the humidity.

Andy and Marcus are at a scout activity shooting things, painting things and eating lots of meat.

Kinley is napping.

The rest of us are watching a B rated movie called Soccer Dog.  Thank you to our library for carrying this fine title.

Last Saturday was Marcus's final soccer game of the season.  The game had been post-poned due to rain (surprise) and it took a couple weeks to reschedule.  It was a tough game for the boys.  Some of the players were not there-you know, families made plans thinking that soccer would be over at the end of May.  The temps were hot.  And, I don't usually complain, but even I thought the reffing was sub-par. 

Oh well.  

Anyway, the boys lost 1-2, and, even though I would have like to see the team make it to the championship, I was pretty happy to pack up the van after the game.  No more soccer till September.

Now, for some final photos of the team.

This team has played together so well.  Most of the boys have played together for both the fall and spring seasons.  Marcus had a great experience and some great coaching.



Last thoughts from the coach

dog pile!

Me and Cale, watching the game.  Cale was really paying attention since this is the league he will be in next year.
