Let The Games Begin!

Saturday was Elizabeth's first Soccer Game of the Season! Yes the child who trips over air is playing soccer. Josh is very excited by this and as soon as he found out that she wanted to play soccer he rushed her down to the local sports store to get all she would need for soccer (I had to talk him down from buying the whole soccer section in the store for her)! I got to say he didn't get this excited over her wanting to do dance...but I guess its a guy thing!

It is indoor soccer and they play on this mini field. There is only two girls on the team and they are called the Blue Blizzards. The game only has 2- 15 minute halves. But that is plenty of time to get the kids tired. It was the funniest thing to watch. She lost her first game but I don't even think that she noticed! She got tired within the first 15 minutes and she didn't play the entire time. The kids basically run up and down the field in a group kicking the ball. There was quit a bit of yelling "NO you're going the wrong way!" And one of our teams points was scored by the other team, but it was fun to watch and see. This is a picture of her friend on the team right before the game.

We really need to work on our picture taking skills because they all turned out like this fuzzy! But this of her getting ready to start the game. Doesn't she look so cute in her little soccer uniform!?!
