Monday after school, Anthony went to practice with the 10u Xtreme team that his friend William is on. This team is mostly older kids (10s and a few 9s) and they will only have 9 players going to the San Diego tournament in a few weeks. Joni (Xtreme owner) is looking for a few younger brothers (of older brothers already going to San Diego for Xtreme) to be subs for this team. Ant went to practice to see if he could fit in with this team. Midway through the 4:15-6:15 practice, I went to pick up Ramsey from his 4-5:15 batting practice -- and he ended up searching for tennis balls with John Q and playing handball with John and Tyler. Ram and I went back to watch Ant and the coaches asked if Ram wanted to practice/play also since there were an uneven number of boys at practice. Of course Ram wanted to join in!
Ram had an orthodontist appointment 7:20am before school yesterday 10/27. His orthodontist was wearing a Halloween costume! There were 4 patients, including Ram, at the office at the time of Ram's appointment -- all 4 boys play Menlo-Atherton Little League in the Majors division…it was like a baseball boys get together ha ha. After the appointment I had to drop Ram and Ant at school. Ant was sitting in the middle of the back row because Ram's bike was previously in the middle row. Ant was watching Star Wars Clone Wars. Ram will get braces in Feb 2016 -- we got a quote/estimate of how much the braces will cost $7500!!! Yikes. His expander treatment already cost $3K. When it is all done, he will have a $10K smile. Ha ha.
Ant's soccer coach Ray brought the tournament trophy to practice yesterday. Ant had to take pics with it. Ray was so proud of Ant. He said when the game ended in a tie, he went to talk to the officials about the PK penalty kick tie breaker rules. When he came back to the team, Benjamin had already taken off his goalie jersey and Anthony had it on. Ray asked them, "Is this what you guys want?" Benjamin (this is the kid who took Ant and Ayden to a SF Giants baseball game back in Sept for his birthday celebration) said, "Yep, Ant is taller and can reach farther." And that's how Ant became the PK goalie and was still wearing his goalie jersey when he kicked in the last PK goal to win!
