Nate's 1st soccer tournament

Nate had his 1st soccer tournament the weekend of the 17th....this year his team is in a competitive division and plays for points. Throughout the season they will earn points towards district play-offs and will be competing in a few tournaments. There are no awards for participation, only for placing in the tournaments. His team took 2nd place and he was very excited to receive a trophy! They played very well, but faced a very talented team in the play-offs. It was a rough game, but in the end the other team was better at moving the ball down the field and earned their win fair and square. You might be wondering, how was the weather? Well.....as is typical this year, it was very UN-spring-like. Take a look at Natalie bundled up in her fleece and winter hat! It didn't stop her from pushing the soccer ball around as we watched the game - I think she's being initiated early.
