We've jumped on board to what so many parents have done before us...soccer. All the girls wanted to play this year and at the last minute we signed them up. Adele's age group was full until this past Thursday. That makes six practices during the week and three games on Saturdays. Geoff is one of the coaches for each of their teams.
Adele's game was first. Her teams name is The Neon Bananas (the girls get to choose their own team name). Adele is playing defense and can easily outrun any girl on the field. Man that girl is fast. Now we just need to work on what happens when she gets to the ball... It will come in time. Her team won 4-1.
Tennie played next. Her team is called The Dominoes. Tennie also plays defense and that kid plays with all her heart. She is hustling around and giving a good fight, and is constantly yelling encouragement to her teammates. Her team has a lot of first time players, and the team they played against has played together for years. The lost 6-0.
Ceci's team, the Pink Bulldogs, won 6-2, and Ceci, who plays forward, scored four of those goals! She would take it all the way down the field and kick it in over and over again! She was so proud of herself, and Geoff and I were so happy that she saw the greatness within herself that has always been there.
Here is to a great season!
