So Andrew disobeyed my order and turned another year older. For his birthday he wanted a Soccer Party. I felt really out of my league since I don't have a sporty bone in my body but it turned out really fun.
We started with Coach "Wanna-make-you-sweat" making the kids run laps and do push-ups. Then when they were exhausted he ran drills and taught them the basic rules of soccer.

Then we took a food break opened presents. He received some awesome gifts, thank you everyone! Green vs Purple played a surprisingly exciting game of soccer.

The boys team. We had the boys all run out to the field while playing "Who let the dogs out" (they loved it)

The girls team (they ran out to the song Dynamite)

The whole group including the infamous Coach and his two assistants. The kids had so much fun, and all the parents told me that their child went home requesting a Soccer Party for their next birthday- Success!!!

An update on 7 year old Andrew;
-he has become an amazing swimmer and can swim underwater and jump off the deep end. (Last year I would have NEVER believed he would do that!)
-He loves school, but all he ever tells me about is PE and recess.
-He loves sports and anything active
-We started piano and have put it on hold (hopefully temporarily, it was making me grumpy)
-He takes forever to get ready in the morning.
-He loves music, especially Justin Bieber
Happy Birthday Andrew, I love you so so so much!
