Katie's First Soccer Game

This morning was Katie's first soccer game and appropriately so, since we are in the Pacific Northwest, it was raining. They didn't let a little rain stop the games though! Katie refused to wear any kind of rain gear and couldn't wait to get wet.

This soccer league is all about having fun. The girls will learn the basics and get to try out their skills in a game, but nobody is keeping score.

Katie could hardly contain her excitement as she played. Everytime she looked over at us on the sidelines, her huge smile shone brightly through the rain. All of the girls were excited to be out there.

We are pleased to report that Katie scored a couple of goals and one of them involved taking the ball from one end of the field to the other without allowing anyone to steal it from her and then she aimed right for the goal and it went in. She was particularly proud of this play!

Today was the first of eight games. So, we'll be on the soccer field every morning for the next 7 Saturdays, cheering for the girls!
