something new

I know you are probably really tired of seeing hockey pictures (only one more tournament for the season!), so here is something a little different. 

Lacrosse!

Ethan decided he wanted to try lacrosse this spring, and he's in love.

This was him on day one, gearing up.

And of course posing. 

He's so cute (or handsome). 

Elliott has to be included. 

This was the second practice. Elliott brought his own stick so that he could practice too. He's actually pretty good. 

I'm still amazed that he can catch the ball with the stick. 

And judging by that smile, so is he. :)  

Don't worry....... 

He caught that one too. 

There is a lot of running. 

And running. 

And running (check out those calves!) 

So far he's only had 2 practices, but he spends a lot of time in the yard working on catching and throwing. His coach had a great idea to throw the ball against the wall and catch it...........over and over and over. Now all I hear from outside is "thump, thump, thump". :) 

We are looking forward to learning more about the game and having him play a couple times.
