Hope's first soccer game

I know it seems kind of late for Hope's first soccer game but when we signed her up for soccer we didn't realize we would be gone the first three Saturday's of the season. Hope didn't realize there was more to soccer than just walking across the street to the park and kicking the ball around with Coach Neil and a few of her friends.

We thought Hope would be our aggressive player but I couldn't help remembering Hallee's soccer days when I saw Hope picking dandelions out on the field. For her first attempt things went relatively well with the exception of one melt down after a fall to the ground.
Thanks for coming Grandma Smith and great grandma Larsen! We had a fun day with you!

Well, what do you know - we do have at least one thing in common in our lives - soccer! She looks so cute in her little soccer socks!

She said the funniest thing in primary today. For music time they were doing this bowling thing to choose songs and out of the blue Hope busts out with "You can't use your hands in soccer." I laughed out loud...someone's been teaching her the rules to soccer:)

Soccer is a time suck that is for sure. It gobbles up lots of time, but so does many of the activities we get our kids involved in. As long as they love it, it's worth the sacrifices we make on our time.

She looks so cute with her tiny body and her huge jersey! I can't believe she's playing soccer already. I haven't even thought about getting Katelyn into soccer yet!
