Bombshell Bowden.........

My favorite day of the week has arrived, Soccer Saturday.  This has become a ritual in our family to spend quality time on Saturdays enjoying soccer.

Papa and Bambeano left early for Papa's pee wee soccer practice while i enjoyed a quiet house and tried to still catch up on the laundry (the dryer broke last week end).

Bowden household was responsible for half time oranges, snacks and drinks.  I make it a point to sign up for both Bambeano and Boo Boo's games the same week end that way I don't forget and also make sure I get them over and done with the same time, no cause for errors in thinking which week is which kid.

Bambeano was up first enjoying his 1st game as captain and boy did he rise to the occasion.  A thrown in was given and Bamabeano chest the ball down simultaneously turned to face the goal and on the volley rocketed the ball into the goal.  OMG not only had Bambeano scored but it was an unbelievable goal turning and connecting on a volley is a tough feat for a 5 year old but somehow he managed it.

Now either the goal was the result of the 5 marbles Mummy & Papa had promised Bambeano or maybe it was the rubbing on the boots/cleats (UK and US version) that took place before the game.  Don't ask but for some reason Bambeano had got it into his head that if Mummy rubbed the gold on his white boots he would have lightning speed :)  Well not settling for just one goal Bambeano decided to add to the tally and rack up yet another goal.  My goodness this kid was on fire!!!!!!!!

One of his team mates finished the tally and we won 3-0.

up next Boo Boo.  She had a tough game and did great holding to a 0-0 game. 

Just to finish the Soccer Saturday on a positive note Papa made sure his Team Bowden continued their unbeaten run and won 2-0.

What a great day.  I just LOVE soccer Saturdays!!!!!
