Games, Games and More Games

What a busy but fun weekend. Between two flag football games and four soccer games, we pretty much spent our weekend at a field. Grandma and Grandpa Key came in town Friday night and will be staying the week to watch the boys while we head to work. Needless to say, we kept them busy. We started with flag football on Saturday morning. Not only were my parents there, but Melissa, Braden and Shawn also came to cheer Casen on. 

After watching a winning game, we headed to South Houston to watch Camden play with his old team in his first game of the Rise Tournament. He too had quite the cheering section as Melissa, Shawn, Braden and my parents were there as well.  His team won that game and we headed back to the fields later that evening for yet another game, which they also won.

Today we headed back out to the soccer fields for another game. They again won which advanced them to the championship game which was this evening. Unfortunately, due to Casen having another flag football game, he and Shane and my parents headed back to Cypress and did not get to go to the final game. Camden and I stayed near the fields and went and ate with Camden's best fiend Cole and his mom prior to the championship game. 

The final game the boys played was against a Rise girl's team. Prior to the game I reminded the boys that they did not need to take it easy on them just because they were girls. I tell you, it is kind of hard when you spend all your days teaching your children to respect girls and be kind and be a gentleman, only to turn around and tell them to treat the girls just like they would a boys team. Ha!! But I tell you, some of the girls on that team were giants!!!!! Unfortunately, we could not compete with the size of a few of them and lost the final game. One girl was taller than me, (I am 5' 9") and she could stick her leg out and stop any ball headed her way. Regardless, it was such a fun weekend of soccer and I loved getting to watch Camden play with the game he loves.

Such a great group of boys!!!

The tall blonde in the back was ~ 6ft tall.

We could not compete with their size.
