What a Day of Soccer

This was one of those days that you'd love to relive over and over and over again!  It started at the soccer fields at 6:30 in the morning. 

Logie Bear loves playing soccer!!!  And man does this kid have a high gear when he needs it!  He has lightening legs! 

This is the championship weekend for soccer and Logan was dreaming about winning it all. He has been talking about this day for weeks!  

His team, The Dabbers, won their first game. Yay!!! Which meant they moved on to the championship game at 11:00. 

During the third quarter Logan put himself in the way of a kick and got kicked hard in the knee. He went down and spent the third quarter break on the field with coach and the refs. They gave him ibprofen and had him walk it off. He was limping the rest of that quarter. 

Logan played defense until the last quarter of the game when Coach Isaac moved him to forward. We were behind by one goal going in to that forth quarter. Then Jobie Rojas made a goal and tied us up. There was about 2 minutes left in the game. We were all pretty sure the game was going to overtime. 

Then Logan kicked the winning goal!!!!

It was epic!!!

When the refs blew their whistles ending the game the boys started screaming and running towards each other. Logan ran towards me and as he got closer he started to cry!  He was so emotional about winning in general but to have just made the winning goal with just minutes to spare was more than his little 10 year old self could handle. 

It brought me to tears to have him run to hug me first after such a victory!  

His teammates started yelling, "MVP! MVP!" And Tanner Emery, the tallest kid on the team, put Logan on his shoulders as they all celebrated the win. It was a magical moment for sure!  Logan was on a high for days and days! 

Isaac is a fabulous coach!

Grant was the "team manager," and he took that job very seriously. He stayed at Isaac's side during every game. It was pretty cute. Grant was in heaven! 

Way to go Logan!!!

Way to play with all your heart!

We have all loved watching you play soccer!

We found out the following week that Logan was chosen to be on the all-star soccer team. He was ecstatic!!!!

Looks like there will be four more months of soccer in our schedule. 

After I took this picture Logan said, "mom, you need to post that picture on FaceBook and let the ladies know we are available!"

I am going to pretend he meant available to wash cars or pull weeds. LOL!  What a character!
