Spring Soccer

I don't have any house pictures to share with you quite yet, but that doesn't mean we've been slacking! This week we have been busy taking care of some detail work (painting baseboards, cleaning very dirty windows, etc.), making shelving for the closets, painting (of course!), and so much more. I am waiting to take care of a few more details before I share pictures, but I promise they are coming soon. 

While I cannot satisfy your curiosity with house pictures, I can share Max's spring soccer pictures with you. I am always proud of my kids, but Max truly shined this year on the field. After some mental coaching from mom and dad, the game finally "clicked" in his head. He played very strategically, and quickly became one of the star players on the team and in his age division. 

His hard work and strategy paid off when he scored his first goal during the second game! He continued to score throughout the season, and received many compliments on his game.  One parent even said he should play for The Netherlands national team one day! He didn't even know Max was Dutch... too funny :) 

Without further ado, here is our rising star and perhaps the next van der Vaart or Robben!
