When I was growing up, my Gram (who raised us) was an absolute fanatic about my brother's Little League baseball teams, games, picnics, uniforms, dinners, scorekeeping -- you name it -- she did it and was happy about it. She was the first to get game/practice and the last to leave. Not only did she do this for my brothers, Kevin and Robbie -- but the few years that Ricky played Little League -- my Gram was at every game proudly displaying her photo buttons!
I've not resorted to photo buttons or some of the other extremes. But I did purchase the ultimate soccer chair and the cutest little soft-sided, rolling ice chest. I will tell you one thing -- You won't find a prouder Grammie sitting on the sidelines of the Orange Premier Pirates Club Soccer Team.
I've posted about Lo and Soccer before so -- I won't go in to how fast she is, how she can control the ball so well, is a great team player -- oooops! I'll stop now.
Here are a few pictures from a recent Tournament. The pirates took first place in the weekend long Toyota of Orange Soccer Tournament.

The Pirates!
Lo is in the back row -- third Pirate from the left.
This purchase put me into my Gramma's league as a freakzoid grandparent!
Yes, I actually sit in this chair (notice my new big girl purse!).
Love. this. chair.
It is a far cry from the aluminum/web beach chair my Gram had!
Blurry, I know. But love the photo. This is a prime example, why I should bite the bullet and buy that darn D60!
Blurvision by Grammie!
These photos were taken at another Tournament (they were practicing) in Huntington Beach.
