My Little Soccer Stars


Alicia started her soccer season about a week and a half ago. She played last year so she had an idea of what to look forward too, and was super excited to start her 2nd soccer season.This year seems to be a lot more instructional, so it's been good for her to actually "learn" more about the game. Alicia is a natural athlete and very competitive, which makes for some good "offensive" action. She knows her coach from church and she already has quite a few friends from school on her team which also makes it a lot of fun.

Emily on the other hand, is totally new at this soccer thing. In fact, to be honest, I had visions of Emily standing in the middle of the field picking flowers. But, she wanted to play with her best friend, Madelyn. Madelyn's dad, Heath, (God bless him) is the coach, and Emily loves him. So of course I had to sign her up as well.

I have to say though that Emily really did surprise me. She got very in to playing this new game of soccer. Heath is an awsome coach, and Emily seemed to have a ton of fun.

Sarah loved playing too. I think because her friends Emily and Mady were playing it helped. Coach Heath was very good at keeping the kids interested.
