The Soccer Season Begins!!!

Saturday was the girls' first soccer games. Payton's was at 8:30, then we all (all the grandparents and us) came back to the house until Maci's game at 11:30. After the game we all went to Chuy's for lunch to celebrate! The girls had a blast! Payton stayed with the ball the entire game and even scored 2 goals!!! (1 was questionable, but we'll give it to her!) After her first big goal, instead of running back with the team for the next play, she came to the sideline where her fans were and gave each one of us a high five! It was hysterical! I guess next she'll be doing a celebration dance after each scored goal! We flagged her for excessive celebration! What a little nut! At Maci's game I was shocked at how much more intense it was this year than last! man, those coaches were serious! I was afraid it would make her intimidated and not like soccer, but she loved it anyway! Hopefully, she continues to not let them bother her! (Although her mommy was pretty bothered by it!) She was fabulous too! She made several great plays and even got to be goalie for a little while...her favorite! She was great at stopping those balls! It was extremely hot during her game...I think record setting hot! She was a champ though, and played hard till the end! They were stinkin adorable out there! Its going to be a fun season!


Payton's 1st Soccer Game This is Maci in a nutshell...she runs hard up and down the field with a huge smile on her face...I hope it stays there! Go get'em girl!!!!Alan deserves the "Father of the Year" award in my opinion!! He has devoted 3 week nights and every Saturday to coaching BOTH of the girls' teams!! They have no idea how blessed they are to have a dad that adores them as much as he does! The best part is, he LOVES doing it! I think he looks forward to it every day! That man is amazing and I adore him!Here is my little firecracker doing her thing...I wanted a picture of both my soccer stars, but she was hot and hungry, so this is what I got!!! Oh, my! I have got my hands full!! Hahaha!
