Follies from the field

Audra playing goalie in last weekend's match up against Santa Fe (TX that is!)
Her aggressive run towards the ball in sweltering heat!

Oh we've had some good laughs in observing our childrens' personalities as brought out "on the field". Two weekends ago Chris took Audra to her early morning game with just Anders along as a cheerleader. Chris said she was playing, quite good as goalie when she turned to Chris in the middle of the game, hands on hip and said "where is Anders??" Chris said... what? Audra keep playing..... "Dad! Where is Anders I don't see him!!!" Chris reassured his eldest child "He's on the playground with some other kids.....STAY FOCUSED!" Ah....that's Audra. Worried about her little brother's safety in the middle of the game (or more... aware of his absence?)

Gunnar on the other hand....
Chris and Gunnar headed out to his game later that morning while Dane was still asleep. Chris is the coach! I rounded up the other three and we went to Sonic for a drink before the mid-morning game. It's just too hot!! Still!! as we parked our chairs on the sidelines, the game full steam GUNNAR waves and shouts mid-play!! DID YOU GET ME A SONIC??? I waved him on (Gunnar keep playing.....all parents eyes on me) Gunnar runs over to the sideline (MID PLAY!) What kind did you get me mom??!!!! aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!! Learning.... still learning!
