soccer is life

These kiddo's have been playing soccer since the age of 4.  They caught the soccer "bug" at an early age and continue to love and work hard at their craft.  While we spend at least 5 days a week doing some sort of "soccer" thing, we loved having the opportunity this past summer to compete the National Championship held in San Diego, CA.  It was an experience of a lifetime for the girls.  

Being a soccer family can be tough on the "non soccer" family members... Mateo (and now Xavier) put in countless hours of travel and watching their sisters compete and do something that they absolutely love.  While he may grumble about it, the family time we spend together and support is invaluable.

Abby has started to follow in her sisters' foot steps and I'm sure a National Championship is in her near future!

love of the game

 A year ago, we made our pregnancy "facebook official" with the below court picture and caption:

This year, our boy is bigger than the basketball!  And continues to show promise on the court :)
