soccer

So, soccer season has started . .. and in the first 8 days, we have NINE games! The girls each play their second game tonight . . .Ian's second game was Monday night. Well, half of it was. It started lightning about 20 minutes into the game, and by halftime, the storm sensors had gone off. Ended up with a downpour, so it was called. Hate that they didn't just record the score as it stood at that point. . .there was no way we were going to win that one! The other team was a year older, and at halftime, the score was 3-0, and we'd gotten no where near a goal!

Ian's team's uniforms aren't in yet, so they're wearing plain green t-shirts with numbers until the uniforms arrive. The coach says they'll just be the "bad news dragons" until then.


Allison's team . . .they had ONE pre-season practice . . .and unfortunately, it looked like it. Allison tried hard. . .ran the whole time, kicked the ball a few. . . not bad for her first try.


Alaina . . .well, we've always said Alaina was going to be our athlete! She scored 4 goals during her first game. Andy's the coach . . .and after each goal, she'd run by him and give him first. I wish I'd gotten a shot of her first score .. . nothing like the reaction the first time they score. Love the tongue shot here, even though the photo is a bit over exposed (haven't messed with any of these in PSE yet).
