Soccer (or Series of Unfortunate Events)

We had such excitement going into the soccer season.  The uniforms were delayed and that pushed the start back a week.  Then, we missed the second practice and first game because we were in Louisiana visiting with Aunt Melanie.  The following week we missed due to the stomach virus making its way through our home.  The next week (last week) was picture week and it was also freezing...freezing!  These kids braved their uniforms for the picture, but by the time we'd stood outside waiting, everyone was sent home to warm up.  
Saturday was the third (our first) game and it was still really cold.  Jared's game was at 8am and was cancelled, but Ethan's was later and was still held.  We went and froze ourselves for half the game at which point Ethan started feeling really ill.  

After talking to him, I think it was more nerves than anything...as in, all of a sudden he realized he was in the middle of a soccer game that he didn't know how to play.  I guess that's what happens when you miss soccer practices and have anxiety issues sometimes.

I am hopeful that the rest of the season goes better, but in truth that wouldn't take much!  :)
