Beautiful soccer weather and Happy (belated) Birthday, Kyle!

Wasn't the weather Sunday just gorgeous? (* happy dance of joy *) I am soooooo ready for warm, sunny weather! Kyle and Delaney both had Crown Point games on that day, and they overlapped half an hour. Fun, fun... scheduling both of them on travel teams now -- not! Kyle's game started first. This is his first travel team. He is playing with several of the boys that he was playing in-house with, and they did a GREAT job. Their final score was 7-0, and Kyle got one of those goals! Kyle's very first travel uniform. :-)

Here is his goal shot, in two pictures -- his shot and then the ball in the net.

And one position that Kyle enjoys playing (that Delaney never did) is goalie! Here are some of his goalkeeping shots.

We drove straight to Delaney's Crown Point game afterwards, and we were able to catch the second half of her game. The final score of their game was 4-6, and Delaney was able to snag one goal as well.

And here is Delaney's goal, in two pictures again -- right before her shot, then the ball in the net!

After those two soccer games in the glorious weather, we hightailed it back home to get ready for Kyle's family birthday party. His actual birthday is March 26, but we weren't able to schedule the party until this past Sunday. He had a pirate theme for his birthday, and his Aunt Danah made him a phenomenal cake. How awesome is that!!!

He received some awesome new short outfits for the summer -- Star Wars Lego themed and soccer themed. (He can't wait to show Delaney's Three Lions' coaches his England jersey!)

He also received SEVERAL video games he just HAD to have: Star Wars Lego Clone Wars III, The Force Unleased II, Lego Rock Band and Mario Sports Mix! He was also excited to get a pocket copter like his cousin got earlier.

Somehow our baby has turned eight years old, "Arrrrrrrr!" How can that be possible?

Kyle is a very lucky little boy to have such a loving and generous family!

Ken, Dani, Dee & Kyle
