Liam and Soccer

For a couple of weeks at the end of the Minneapolis United Soccer, Liam would go to the park and just kick the ball around. Many of the days other kids and sometimes adults would join him. Here he is just practicing by himself, in the dirt. Actually, I think I was playing goalie at this point.

Liam really began playing better at the end of the season. I think once he gets used to dribbling the ball forward rather than just booming it up there, he’ll have a bunch more confidence. That didn’t keep him from scoring a whole bunch of goals this year, though. Probably the most on his team.

Library and Candyland Visit

I’ve been to Candyland as many times as anywhere else this summer, I think. This time we also went to the Central Library and spent a good deal of time there both playing and reading books.
