Spring Sports

I think this spring is just a glimpse into what our future is going to hold full of activities with our kids. We typically only have the kids in one activity at a time, but with 4 kiddos, that's going to be a lot to juggle!Kyndal and Corbin, ready for their first volleyball and soccer games this spring.

Casey is co-coaching Corbin's soccer team (Corbin's 1st year!) and I am co-coaching Kyndal's 1st grade volleyball team. We are heading into our 3rd week and I'm finally getting pics from the first week posted!

Kyndal's volleyball team has 6 girls and we play 4 on 4. I have to admit the practices are much more effective than the games (25 minutes each). If the serve goes over the net, that's pretty much the end of the volley! But they've got to start somewhere....and week 2 was a little better than the 1st week. The great thing is that she is really good friends with 4 of the girls on her team so even though she doesn't seem to be crazy about the sports scene she does love to be with her friends.

Like I mentioned, this is Corbin's 1st year and 1st experience with sports and he was really excited to get started. I thought he played really well, boys are so much more aggressive than the girls, at least at this age. All week long after the 1st game he complained that the other boys "kept kicking him". He was not impressed about the physical side of it. But it must not have gotten him down too much, Casey said he got right in there and played hard week 2 and even scored 2 goals! I will only get to see 2 games since Kyndal's are almost all at the exact same time as his.
