Vaca week

Vacation week so not a ton going on.  Beach, boat, island, beer, repeat...  So, I've been off the pitch for a while.  Kicked the ball around with my oldest (on the worlds crappiest field - weeds, mildewed or mossed net, 4,000 fire ant mounds, and about a 1/2 mile from the sun - you get the idea).  The interesting news is there is an opportunity for my oldest to get on the 1st team for the club he plays.  One of the kids I coached in my son's parks and rec league actually referred my oldest to the coach for a tryout.  (He was a great player even at 6).  He has an on field "try out" on Monday and is both excited and nervous.  I told him to just play like he knows how to play and play like he wants to be there.  I am more interested in him being on the 1st team because he will play full 11v11 soccer for the 1st time in a game setting.  We shall see how it goes but I'm looking forward to the next entry...
