Last game of the season

Another soccer season comes to an end. It has been really neat to watch how much Hunter has grown skills wise since last year. His ability to control the ball, make a good pass and definitely be more aggressive has gotten so good. He works so well on a team environment and has made some good friends. Deke bought him some green hair spray so he could be all green for his last game. It was like the joker green, it was quite bright especially against his fair complexion. Even though they lost the boys played a great game and ran really hard. As they came off the field they all looked pretty bummed about the fact that the season was over. Of course it definitely helped that Grandma, Eden and Aunt Brenn had all just come into town and got to come watch his game.They came off the field and gathered together to hand out trophies. The coach had them each come up one by one and recieve their trophy while the coach said a few words about them. Hunter told my that his trophy was "way cooler" than the one they got last year. I loved that after the coach finished talking about him, he lifted his trophy in the air like a fist pump, smiling and cheering as if he had just won a world championship. Love him. Add in some Krispy Kreme donuts as a post season celebratory snack and all were happy. A nice break for the holidays before spring when we venture into either baseball or flag football. I have to admit I will definitely be enjoying the little bit extra sleep in time on Saturday morning and the lack of Fry's runs for fruit snacks and Caprisuns. Way to go Hunterbug!!!
