Learning to bend it like Beckham

Cruz is trying his hand, er, make that foot, at soccer this summer. He didn't express interest in any particular sport so we just sorta chose one for him! We figured we'd find out soon enough if he didn't enjoy it. The good news is that he loves it and is having a blast! The class is for 4 and 5 year olds and they are just so darn cute. They are so little that they are swimming in the jerseys, which only adds to the cuteness.

Roll call
Learning the basics



Squaring up to the goal
Getting the hang of it
Once we confirmed he liked soccer and wanted to continue taking lessons, we picked up cleats and shin guards. Lessons are only on Mondays and he looks forward to it every week. It's so much fun for us to watch him learn and have fun at the same time. It's a busy summer for us working parents but so rewarding.

Practicing ball-handling


Go Cruz!
