Soccer

Today was Emma's first soccer practice/game. She was suppose to start last week but it got rained out, so this was a long week of soccer anticipation. She was SOOOO excited and it was so cute to see her with all her soccer gear on! She did a great job during practice and followed all the directions for the drills....when it came to the game, well let's just say it's a bunch of 3 and year olds trying to play soccer and I almost wet my pants laughing it was so cute!! Emma did a great job of running, I mean sprinting (she's got some speed!) up and down the field, but she wasn't quite sure what to do when she got next to the person who had control of the ball...guess we've always taught her to take turns and not steal toys from other kids and here we are yelling from the sidelines "take the ball away." She had a great time and has been talking about it non-stop all night long!!

(yes, they told the kids to put their heads on the ball- they were learning about what body parts can touch the ball and which cannot- i.e. their hands)
