Soccer

Three of my kids played soccer this year. It was crazy trying to get them to all of there games and practices on all different days and times. And we had A LOT of rain this year so there were a lot of make-up games which took our soccer season well into November. But it was a lot of fun to watch the kids.

Tyler played a couple of seasons ago and decided to take a break and try something else. But this fall she wanted to play soccer again and was lucky enough to be on the same team with one of her friends. Their team had a rough start to the season but ended up winning most of their games. It was so fun to watch them all work together and become a pretty good little team.

Gage also took a break form soccer but was anxious to start back. He enjoyed playing goalie and forward this season. The boy teams are fun to watch because they are much more aggressive than the girls and way more competitive. They had a blast.

Macy, our little diva, decided she wanted to play soccer too. We were like REALLY?? but I didn't want to discourage her from anything so I let her try. (Besides, once you pay for 2 kids the 3rd one is free). Macy has always taken dance classes, ballet classes and acrobatics. She enjoys singing and performing so I wasn't surprised when she was so concerned with her "soccer outfit" for her practices and games. Nor was I surprised at her 2nd practice when she announced that she didn't want to play anymore. I made her stick it out.

They all had a great season. I'm such a looser and didn't get a picture of all of them but i did get one of Macy. Chances are she won't want to play again so at least I have the proof that she gave it a shot. The little un-athelete even scored a goal!! You should have seen her celebrate! (and brag to her siblings of course)
