We were really feeling bummed that Kaden couldn't play soccer this season. He really wanted to and was talking about it all the time (especially after getting to go to Tanner's game a couple of weeks ago!). My sister asked if we'd want him to play down in Riverton with his cousin, Riley. We figured that since I'm down there all the time anyway, it wouldn't be a big deal for 7 games. Kaden was completely thrilled and has wanted to sleep with his soccer ball every night since we got it.
Well, tonight was the first big game. We got to the field and the kids got their uniforms:
Their coach asked all the kids what they wanted for their team name. The boys all said "Pirates" and the girls said "Butterflies". She compromised with everyone and they are now the "Dragonflies"!
It was hysterical to watch them. They were so, so cute and Kaden was in hog heaven. He kept looking over at the sideline and giving us 2 thumbs up.
We got home tonight and Kaden didn't want to take off his uniform! Mimi needs to make some adjustments to it (its so big!), so we talked him into letting her fix it. I'm so glad that he gets to play, and that he's so excited about it. I can't believe how big he looks in the pictures and on the field.

Can't wait to go to a game. They looked like they had fun!
That's awesome! Kaden looks like a natural out there.
That is so exciting! And what a great name I really like the Dragonflies.
You have family from Riverton? I grew up there my whole life. My parents and most of my friends are still there....so I too spend alot of time there.
