Soccer!



Never thought my kids would play soccer. Never. Baseball, football, basketball, dance, cheerleading, but no soccer. But, they wanted to and we signed them up through our local Y. Their first practice was September 7. And they took a liking to it pretty quickly.




Their first game was on September 8 (most of our practices have either been cancelled, re-scheduled or cut short due to all the rain we have had here.) 

My tough soccer players - 




I told them to look mean!
I ~love~ this picture!

Ella Grace playing goalie. Look at that form!
Um, little excitement here from Major after he scored a goal!
They always go in with the plan to pass the ball to each other and Ella Grace score a goal.

Ella Grace holds hands with the coach's son. Hilarious! No, really, it was only this one time.

Very proud of these kids. They stick with it pretty much the whole game. It gets really hard when the sun is beating down on you and you've been in the majority of the game. They each play no less than half, usually 3/4 to the whole game. Ella Grace, especially, has gotten several compliments and I can tell when the opponent's parents are talking about my stars! I love it!
