Soccer
Aiden just finished up his soccer season.... it's crazy to me that they play so late in the year up here. We had games where it was all of 45 degrees ... and we're playing soccer. However, they play 'micro soccer' up here at Aiden's age level. He LOVED it. The field is smaller and there is only 6 on a team. Only three on three at a time. He had a GREAT season ... scored at least two goals a game. His little team was UNDEFEATED!

[he is already looking forward to next season]
