Back in the Saddle...Two Sport Saturday!

Parker was cleared to play at 10 pm Friday night because his strep throat was no longer contagious.  So at 6:45 am on Saturday we woke him up so he could get ready for his first day of hockey.  It was an early morning for everyone (mom didn't get home until 1:30 am), but we made it to the ice by 7:45!  Getting all of the right gear and skates took a little bit, but Parker hit the ice promptly at 8 am.  Here is some pictures and footage of his first day.

After hockey we were able to come home for an hour before we had to turn around and go to Parker's soccer game.  Soccer season has flown by this season.  At the game Parker ended up scoring two goals for his team and the game ended in a 2-2 tie.  Parker was pretty bummed they couldn't score one more goal to win!  After watching Parker play soccer last year for Olathe Rush we are pleasantly surprised how well he has done this season.  He is much more aggressive than he was previously and he has turned out to be one of the better kids on his team!

After soccer we went to Brent and Dani's place for the 6th annual pumpkin beer and college football extravaganza!  Unfortunately we do not have any pictures, but everyone had a blast.
