Landon played soccer again this spring, and T-ball again this summer. He has improved so much since his last seasons. We are so proud of him and had such a fun time watching him and cheering him on. Matt coached both of his teams.
In soccer, Landon loved being in the action. He was so aggressive this year and always wanted to be where the ball was. He understood how to pass and always tried to get the ball in the middle. He was always hustling and he scored at least one goal every game this season. Some days he had multiple goals! He also did a great job playing defense and getting the ball away from the other team. Playing goalie wasn't his favorite thing, but his team rotated through so usually every other game for a quarter he would have to be the goalie. Landon got a medal at the end of his soccer season.
In T-ball, a year made a huge difference. Landon can really hit off the tee (as you will see in some videos below) and learned how to field, throw and catch this year too. He was one of the oldest on his team, and he will move to coach-pitch next year. He made a pretty good pair with another boy that was his age on his team and sometimes they got more than 3 outs in an inning. Hitting was Landon's favorite thing, but he also liked to play pitcher to field the ball and throw to first, or play first base to catch the ball from his teammates and get outs. Landon got a trophy at the end of his T-ball season.
