On the way he tried on Dad's big sunglasses...
so he could be like Gram:)... (she wears those terrible sunglasses that go over your regular glasses...you know the ones?...ugh) :)
attempting jumping jacks...
thinking how cool it was that Noah was in his section...
The "silly dance"...this is actually required of them even though Aston does this same dance regularly. As one of their drills they play "Red Light, Green Light, Yellow Light". On red light they trap/stop the ball, on green light they dribble and on yellow they do a silly dance...
Team huddle...this was the second week they actually played in a real scrimmage...
Here's Noah as goalie...notice the really bad sun-flare...Noah's mom, Brooke, has a thing for sun-flare in her photos but I don't think this is what she has in mind:) All of these full sun shots are horrible...I need help in this area of photography obviously...
Like Noah's Jazz hands here...
Coach: "Hey Aston...the ball is down at the other end of the field...and Noah is about to score his 13th goal..." Aston: "Whaaa? Where's the mirror I need to check myself out in these sunglasses!":)
Meanwhile Stell was rummaging through Grams purse for anything worth eating...
and Kate and Bruce were studying how it's really done...big kid style...
Afterwards Grams said her goodbyes and Babs drove her to the airport:(
and THEN....the trophy...just for participation of course...
but still...Aston is all about trophies...not sure how he even knows about them?...but he is always saying I'm gonna get a trophy for this or that...
can you see the pride?
Our usual routine is to go the playground post soccer if Aston doesn't sit down on the field during soccer practice:) On our way in the gates Stell gave Mama Kathryn a big snug hug...she's such a big girl now:(

What great pictures ...especially of Aston wit his silly soocer faces...great picture of Aston wit hhis foot poises on the ball..ready for action...And the fun picture of Stelly finding treasures in Gram's pocketbook! We love you, Kate, Jeff, Aston and Stellyn...Gram and Chuck
"noah jazz hands" made me laugh outloud. haha love all these pics!! love aston w/ the trophy. the boys were soooo proud of theirs too. signed them up for basketball (starts sat). you guys doing it? maybe you have karate then??
love all of the silly dance pics. at ella's soccer clinic a few years ago they would play red light, green light and the coaches would yell "black light" for the kids to dance. the kids didn't get it but i always thought it was funny.
love all of the sun rays/flare in the pics. it's always interesting how lenses do flare differently.
love the editing on the first trophy pic especially--very dramatic (i can hear the chorus singing "aaahhh"). kids LOVE trophies. jack got one at a soccer clinic a few years ago and still says he must be pretty good at soccer because he got a trophy (as opposed to t-ball where they gave him a medal).
love the noah "jazz hands", too. looks like such fun saturday mornings with all of the friends and family.
Just as the kids were getting this soccer groove down, it ended! Great pictures of Aston with his soccer trophy. Also loved the picture of Stellyn with her big, sweet hug for me :)
