Spring Soccer




Leaving Alaska I had this vision of watching my kids play soccer in serious heat with the sun beating down on me. I have since learned that spring soccer looks a lot like Alaska soccer...unpredictable. The first week of practice was canceled due to snow. The next week the temp reached close to seventy. Then last Saturday at their first game we (Alese and I) mostly sat in the car because I was very unprepared. It poored and was in the high 30's, people were covered in blankets, hats and gloves. Oh, the greatest rain/cold coverage that really made me feel at home was the other team across the field sitting under a BLUE TARP!!!
