official soccer mom

I was a little worried about Addison's first game because yesterday morning she kept telling me she didn't want to play soccer. I wasn't going to force her to go out there, but I figured once she got all dressed in her gear that she would perk up. She was so excited all I could do was smile. They got to pick their own jersey's and she chose #4. Because she's four she told me.

She's out on the field a full 10 minutes at a time running around after the ball so there's no time to get bored. She even got a few kicks in. I LOVE this picture. I think it perfectly shows how much fun she was having.

I didn't take too many pictures because I spent half the time cheering her and the team on. Honestly, I have no idea who won. I think at some point we were tied at 2, but I'm pretty sure the other team won. Those kids were 5 and had a year under their belt. And you could tell the difference.

The coach told them to come up with a team name. Some of the parents thought Orange Crushers or Orange Slicers would be kind of cute, but they decided to go with Orange Dolphins. You know, they're 4. I guess in their world it's cute and a little funny.

This was during her halftime snack.
I'll try not bore you every week with the same pictures, but if there's a good one you can guarantee I'm going to post it. And there will be video. I won't leave my Flip in the car next time.
