Another Season is Under Way....

The girls had their first game of the spring soccer season today. I put my camera in my purse, but forgot to take pictures at Taylor's game, so I will have to get those next week. I am enjoying my new role as Assistant Coach for her team, along side Coach Charlie. Taylor was thrilled to be on a team with Maylie and Emily again and they proved today just how well they work together. They beat the Cougars 6-1 and although Taylor didn't score, she had some amazing crosses and passes from the right and left side. Team Avalanche looked really strong.
After a few hours, we were back on the field for Allison's 1st game. Her team is the same color, but they are the Blue Bombers. She also has friends from last season on her team and even has Coach Damon again!

All fired up and ready to play

Allison played the 1st quarter as a fullback and struggled to get into the game. She was always one step away from the ball, but she came out strong the rest of the game. She scored a goal and played tough after that. It was a bittersweet 4-3 victory for the Bombers because they played against Allison's buddy, Reanna. Matt and I exchanged a few comments and dances after each goal with Hank and Leslie on the other side of the field. Although the league doesn't keep score at this level, the kids and parents certainly do!

Allison and Marley, together again!
