Soccer!

Here is one of the benefits of taking Laura Coyle's Illustrator class at ReneePearson.com - you can find a dragon online as inspiration and then draw it to look just the way you want it.  Of course I had guidance from my son on this one - it needed a pointy tongue and the soccer ball needed to be on fire, plus a horn on his nose, and a longer tail.  What can I say? It was fun to create something with him. I placed his name under his photo.  And of course the city name goes next to Dragons. And my husband was coach so I added his name and kept his photo visible too for you to see.  It was kinda bright for photos but you don't get a choice sometimes.

He saw that ball and went after it.  Luckily he got away from the kid on the left from the opposing team who kept kicking the kids on our team whether they had the ball or not.  You learn little how to avoid such people - you either out run them or keep yourself on the other side of the field.  We luckily had a good ref this time and he called the kid on it.
 And here he goes, running like lightning.  It was a fun game to watch but Silent Saturday is hard.  We all clapped when the kids scored regardless of this silly rule.
