Soccer Saturday

Finally getting around to blogging about last weekend.

Saturday was team and individual picture day and they also had a 12:00 pm game. Pics were at 11:00 am.

It was so windy! Which made Sophia's individual pics un-orderable. I could have ordered them, but her hair was everywhere. And I could have had her pics redone cause they print a thumbnail there, but it would matter. Her hair would still be everywhere. So Russell suggested I just try to get a good pic of her before her game (think I'm going to try this Sat.) But we did order a team photo.

Then it was game time....

Sophia was way more aggressive and "into" getting the ball this time.

It's amazing how much this age group can progress in such a short amount of time.

They were actually passing a few times. Amazing!

Sophia even took a couple of crashes and falls without crying. Yep! Amazing!

I had to document that Sophia is actually eating an orange, even though at home, she maintains she doesn't like them. :) After this game, Sophia has been requesting oranges for snack time....Love it!

I'm picturing Sophia on defense if she continues to play.

I was so proud of her. She got in there and held her own. Wasn't afraid. Didn't cry. She paid attention. She actually kicked/dribbled the ball. Last week she told me that she couldn't actually go after the ball in the game because "she was too shy". Guess she's getting over her shyness. :)
