Last night was Sullivan's first soccer practice in the Under 6 Chesapeake Soccer League! Mike and I are assistant coaches and the head coach is Rusty...wait for it...a CLEMSON grad! Yep, how cool is that to get paired up with a Clemson grad. He actually graduated a year before me. His wife is also a Clemson grad. We were stoked and ready to be THE TIGERS but it was taken so we decided on a South Carolina favorite...our team name...The Palmetto Bugs!!! ;) We have 8 players, 2 of which are girls. I could not believe how these kids just started catching on and although challenging at times they did pretty well. Rusty had some great game/drill ideas and when we left, we were all beat. Our first game is Saturday and I promise to take a few minutes to take some pictures of the kids. It was really cute to hear what they had to say. One told me he has anew transformer, another told me she was going to Disney on Ice and another said that he wanted to tell Coach Rusty a secret. It was so cute! I am so excited Sullivan is playing and that he loves it. He was so proud of himself. He is quite a little athlete for a 3 year old. We are so proud. ;)
(excuse his silly face, that is how he takes pictures now - oh the child of a photographer)
