This was the first year that BOTH Blakely and Banks were eligible for soccer, and we have been dreaming about them playing on the same team!! They had a great season, and had so much fun with their team and Coach Katy (who is a very patient woman).
 |
| Soccer Try Outs!! The kids had to go to a skills assessment workshop to get "placed" on a team. I found this comical, as our obvious skill level was ZERO! |
 |
| Blakely did FABULOUS at her assessment! She did every thing that she was asked to do, and she never got frustrated! Proud of my girl for trying something new!! |
 |
| The games were fun (read challenging), but everyone loved practice!! |
 |
| Blakely's favorite part of practice was learning how to do "hands in" and "go team." They did it over and over and over at practice!! |
 |
| Predictably, their favorite time of all... team snack! |
 |
| I always had to make sure to pack a juice box and snack pack for the 10th "member" of the team... Katy Ellis!! |
 |
| Getting stretched out and ready for their first game!! |
 |
| "Hi Mom!!" |
 |
| Getting ready for Kick off!! |
 |
| There was a lot of running... |
 |
| ...and more running... |
 |
| ...but mainly confusion as to where the ball was. |
 |
| These two mainly just followed the pack of kids... and OCCASIONALLY made contact with the ball! ;) |
 |
| KE's game side entertainer!! |
 |
| Go Pumas!!! Good job!! So proud of these kids!! They had to play in some REALLY HOT conditions, and they barely complained!! |
 |
| There were a "few" pre-game starbucks runs! ;-) |
 |
| Buddy Shot!! |
Thank you Coach Katy for an awesome first soccer season!!! The kids had an amazing time, and it was so fun to cheer them on together!!
