First Game of the Season

She didn't like dance.  Gymnastics just wasn't her thing.  So, we decided to give soccer a try.

Being that the weather has not been conducive to outdoor recreation, this was not only her first game, it was the first time meeting her coach and teammates.

Brielle learned that shin guards protect your shins, but there's not much to protect your stomach from out-of-control kicks.  

She learned that when on the sidelines, your cheer on your teammates.

You want to know what I learned?  Don't put the camera away when your daughter is heading straight for the net.  She'll score her first goal ever, and you'll miss it.

 

I'm proud of her though... she did great and she played hard.
