Weekend Soccer Games...

Anna Lauren had a soccer game on Friday night and Saturday morning.  Unfortunately, I do not have any pictures from Friday night because when I got to the game, I realized my camera battery was dead from our cruise.

Half way through Friday night's game, Anna Lauren got upset because she had not scored a goal.  We encouraged her and told her  she wouldn't score every game and just had to keep trying.  She went back out and scored...the frown turned upside down and there were smiles!  It didn't end there...a little boy on the other team was let's just say an "athlete"...he was fast, and he scored on her...she did not handle that well.  There was then a meltdown...he is faster than me, he keeps scoring, and so on.  Matt and I again encouraged her and told her it was going to happen...whew...at 4 we were not prepared for that...we have been so "this is fun" mind set...trying to let her play and just enjoy it before it becomes so competitive.

Then there was a new day and a new game...Saturday morning was a fun time...she scored 4 goals and was all smiles thinking she was "something"!


Scoring her first goal of the game...






Almost to the goal...


And she scores...
