GO SHOOTERS!

Soccer! What are we thinking?! Gymnastics + Football = Soccer? Who knew right? No one volunteered to be the coach so Jon and I decided to co-coach it together. Unfortunately his schedule does not allow him to be there very much but the girls sure do love it when he is there. This is their first game of the season against the Blizzards. One of the girls mom's made matching bows for all the girls. That's my favorite part! We have been practicing hard and the girls, plus Brody, were so excited! Jon and I were nervous when the season started, but luckily we know more than a 5 year old. We play lots of games at practice that teach soccer drills so the kids love it. Plus during one of our first practices the sprinklers were on at the school we practice at, so Jon led the girls through them. It was a nice break in our 95+ degree heat. Brody is 2 years too young and the wrong gender to play in the games, so he was a little bummed when we had to break the news to him that he could not play. He practices with the girls and warms up with them at the games. That is how we keep track of him and one of us wears Taylee on our back. He really enjoys the half time and end of game snacks though.From left to right - Dunya, Brody, Hailey, Annie, Rylee, Deveraux, Carlee, Milla
