Auskick



This morning we were awoken by one very excited little boy!
He had a big day ahead of him as he joined piles and piles of other little boys and girls around the state for Auskick.



I have to say we were a little sceptical that Tiggy would actually participate and were completely delighted to see him join in and play like a little Demon - except that he's Saint!



After the drills there was a match between all the Saints supporters and Tiggy actually got his foot on the ball - once!
He did spend an inordinate amount of time looking at insects on the pitch and running the wrong way or swinging off the goal post, but it really didn't matter as we are so proud of him for having a go and enjoying it.



This morning's activity sparked a whole heap more footy play at home this afternoon and we have a Goal board up on the wall so that he can practise his aim. He also went with his Daddy to see Greg's old school footy team win too!

What a big day for our little fellow!
No wonder he's onto his second  third bowl of apple and plum crumble. Mmmm!

Go Tiggy! Looks like he had a great time - great photos too by the way.

I'll have to show Seb your blog in the morning - he starts soccer tomorrow so will love that he's dressed similar to his mate :)
