Dax and Afton had their first games on the 11th of September. They both did really well in their first games and had a lot of fun. This is Afton's first year playing and she loves it. She likes to run, so it's a perfect sport for her to play. If I remember right, Dax scored a goal and Afton almost scored a goal. I didn't get any pictures of Daxon's first game because I'm helping coach, but I got a few of Afton's. At the next couple of games, I was able to get some of Daxon's team before the game started and then I put Afton in charge of my camera and she took some pretty good pictures. Our Saturdays have been really crazy but it's worth it. I love watching their games and they are having so much fun. Logan has also come out of his shell, and he's actually staying on the court and playing in his soccer game without crying. He loves running around even though it's usually not after the ball. It's usually after Max. It's so funny to watch this age group play. Logan will just be wandering around the court and we'll tell him to kick the ball and then he'll try to find the ball and usually gets distracted with something else. Although, he has scored two goals in his games. One goal, he was right in front of the net and Max passed him the ball and Logan kicked it in. He turned around with this big grin on his face and put both his arms up in the air. It was really cute. The other goal was kind of the same way. He was in front of the net and someone kicked the ball that way and he just finished kicking it in.


Afton's first game. They didn't have their uniforms yet so they had to wear a dark color shirt. She's with her friend Ashley in this picture.
Getting ready to play in the game.
Logan's 2nd game. He did really good. Scored a goal and didn't cry.



Afton's 2nd game. They had team pictures that day. (L to R) back: Alyssa, Olivia, Elizabeth, Mya, Ashley, Katelyn. Front: Micayla, Katelyn, Kayla, Emma, Afton, Angelina. Coaches are Brittany and Ashley. Their team name: The Cheetah's.
Here she is with her two coaches. They are both college age and don't have any family on the team. They just love soccer and coaching. I think it's great that they stepped up to coach and Afton loves them.
The game. Afton scored two goals in this game. It was so awesome!!
Daxon's 2nd soccer game. Their uniforms are actually pretty decent looking this year. We had told the team that they were a dark blue and asked them what they wanted their team name to be. They decided on "the Sharks". Daxon's jersey number is 4.
Dax with some of his team mates.
The Sharks- (L to R) Emily, Dylen, Sydney, Dax, Tyler, Ranauldo, David and Christian. Missing are Conner and David.
Next 4 pictures by Afton. Daxon dribbling the ball down the line.
I love how they all huddle around the ball.

Misty and I with the team during half time.
This was Afton's 3rd game and I wanted to get a good picture of her in her uniform. She's number 7.
