Lightning has struck!

Well, this week was the beginning of "The Lightning's" second season together on the soccer field. Benjamin was so very excited to gear up in his uniform, shin guards and turf shoes. Their first game (really their second. We missed the first game because we were in Houston. We're pretending that we didn't miss a thing!) was Tuesday night. What fun!! Our team whooped up on the other little team!! hehe! Yeah, I know they don't keep score, but who can help it? Benjamin scored two goals on his own and so we got to see his "over-the-top," spastic victory dance that we love oh so much!!! I missed one of them because Cait had a potty emergency!
Chris took pictures, but not very many of them turned out because it was so dark. So anyhow, here's a little overview through pictures....


B getting his game face on!!!
