BumbleBee Soccer

This year is Braden's 2nd year playing indoor soccer. If you need a good laugh come out and watch! Picture a swarm of kids running back and forth on the field and occasionally bouncing off one another. Every once in awhile the ball is kicked. usually it ends up under a bench or in a corner and you'll see one or possibly four players attempting to get it out. This is usually a 30 second long process. Last year Braden enjoyed running up and down the field and could care less where the ball was. We resorted to bribing him with a quarter to get him to kick the ball. IF he kicked the ball he'd come running over for a high five. This year Braden was much more into it and actually made a few goals, some in his own goal but they don't keep score so it still counts. :) Today was Bradens last game of the season and I decided to bring my camera and record a few clips. Unfortunately it's just my digital camera, not my video camera since I lost the charger to that about 3 years ago. Since my dad is in Jamaica and hasn't been able to see any games I thought I'd post a few clips. Enjoy. :) Sorry for the crappy quality - the camera doesn't zoom in or out once in video mode.
In clip #1 you have to wait until the end for the real payoff. Braden tries to stop the ball and do a move and ends up almost tripping over it. LOL.




In the 3rd Video Braden scored a goal, but unfortunately I missed most of it. but you'll have to trust me that he's the one that kicked it in.

Looks like you have a future soccer player on your hands! I LOVE when he makes the goal and gives you a thumbs up. Too cute!
