Our big boy--going pro soon!!


Benjamin is running for the ball...kind of! And Coach Steve (that's right-Coach Steve!) is making sure he gets there!


Strategy meeting...

More strategy...

Too much strategy--must have beverage!

Benjamin is now old enough to play soccer, and guess who one of his coaches is?! That's right--Daddy!!! :) Here are some pics to enjoy!

Our Benjamin and his goofy-ness!

Benjamin and Mommy (Mommy not looking her best!!)



Benjamin is afraid of the camera!

Benjamin's world is turned upside down--literally!

Goofy boy.

Benjamin and Molly pose for the camera. They love each other...see how they copy each other? This is true love! :)

Problems with blogger...

We are currently experiencing technical difficulties with blogger, and are not able to post pictures. Please be patient as we try to figure out why we can't post!!

Thanks!
