Natural

Bailey decided that she wanted to play soccer this year. We signed her up and waited to see what team she was going to play on. She has never played soccer before but really really wanted to try it out. I was a bit nervous for her to start playing at ten years old. I was afraid that she wasn't going to be able to "hang" with the other girls. To our surprise Bailey is a natural soccer player!! She scored four goals her very first game!  Wheels must run in the fam because Bay is super fast!
Bay's favorite position is playing forward. It's funny because this game is all new to Morgan and I. We have never played soccer and had no pointers to give her or had any idea what was going on in the field for the first month of soccer. All we knew was where the ball was supposed to go. In the goal. Lukily Bay picked it all up super fast.
 The girls got to come up with their own team name. First the girls voted on the green aliens, but after sitting on that name for a week they changed their name to the fireflies. Much better I say.
 Here is bay getting ready to play goalie.
 Lucky number 7
Our Saturdays have been full of all day sports. With Bay having games on Saturday mornings and Logan with double headers that follow, we spent our Saturdays out at the ball parks.
Now that the season is over for outdoor soccer, the coach has asked if we would like to play indoor soccer. If he can get a full team together our sporting days are far from over.
