Forest Green Crocodiles-4, Purple People Eaters-2

Woot, woot!  We have a soccer ringer on our hands!!!  Jack's team, the Forest Green Crocodiles, beat the Purple People Eaters by a score of 4 - 2 tonight.  Doesn't sound like a big deal, right?  Wrong!  Jack scored a whopping 3 of the 4 goals!  Now I'm not one to brag about my kids (ok, there might be just an unintentional hint of that in my writings), but this kid is seriously GOOD.  He had several breakaways and drove the ball all the way into the net.  And let me tell ya, he's very modest about his mad skills.  Well, we may need to work on that a bit.

Modest or not, the following picture definitely goes down as one of my top favs.  Jack's pose is one for the books but there are a couple of other honorable mentions as well.  Like the little guy behind him with his hands down his pants.  How cute is he?  Or the sassy little red-head.  What exactly is she thinking?  "That's it, I've had enough of this guy, I need to take him DOWN!"  Or "hey blondie, you're good, wanna share a juice box later?" (that one courtesy of Auntie Sarah).  Actually, every kid in the photo has quite the personality.  Love it!

Grandmama, Grandpa Bill, and CeCe were even present to witness the big hat-trick.

Whether he scores one goal, no goals, or 5 goals, we are so proud of our little forest green Beckham!

On a side note - Sorry to my little Moshi and Jamison.  When you are older and able to read this, please know that we love you just as much as your eldest brother - It just happens to be an eventful Jack week.  You're time will come, we promise!
