Will be the shortest post of the bunch…..he had a good time, was placed on a team with two of his friends with class. That’s a good thing socially, but, soccer-wise, the three of them are all “good, not great” players and, going up against teams with a few great players, spelled doom. So, we were ready to believe Christopher’s reports that they didn’t win many games, and, Saturday’s results were about to form. The game I taped they lost 3-2 (nothing really worth uploading here); Suzanne watched a game while I taped Kevin that they won 1-0, and, then, the other game I taped, the first game of the world cup elimination round, they were buried 8-0.
After that game, Christopher came over to talk to Mom and watch Matthew. I guess these pictures say it all. Sometimes, Christopher gets a little discouraged by Matthew’s success….don’t think Saturday was one of those days, but, it’s something we worry about.
Enjoyed the singing (including such hits as “Be Bold, Be Strong, The Lord Our God is With You!” and “More than a legend, more than song”…..forgot the second line there and asked Matthew, who cheerfully sung the whole first verse…..”grab a friend and sing along!”), enjoyed the camp. Has said, again, that he wants to go back next year. So thumbs up on that front.
