Soccer Saturday

 The girls were so excited for their first soccer games! Peanut is playing this year so we've got three girls to root for!


Unfortunately for me (not a morning person!) Boo's game was at 9 so we had to leave the house at 7:45. Peaches is definitely on my side. When Daddy went in and woke her up to leave she was not happy. She shuffled into the bathroom with her shoulders drooping. So funny.

Thankfully it wasn't as cold as the first game last year, but it was still cold! I was wearing two pairs of pants, two long sleeved shirts, a coat, my Sorrel boots, and I had hand warmers and I was STILL cold! The kids didn't seem to mind the cold.


Boo did great! She tried offense, defense, and blocked a bunch of goals as goalie!


Peanut's game was right after Boo's so we just packed up and switched fields. She did awesome for her first game ever!

 

She also played goalie and stopped quite a few goals. We just have to make sure she's standing outside the goal...she blocked a ball but was standing IN the goal so it still counted. Haha!


Noni and Papa were a huge help and kept Peaches warm in their car for parts of those two games since it was sprinkling on and off. We all had lunch together and then they took Peanut and Peaches home with them so Peaches could get a nap. SO nice because we let her miss a nap the other day and she pretty much cried and fussed from 5 o'clock till we put her to bed early at 7:30!

Buggy's games are all on a completely opposite side of town...30ish minutes away. Thankfully with the game times we were able to have lunch and have plenty of time to get there but there are a couple weekends where we're going to have to take two cars and miss one girl's game to see another.


Buggy played goalie for a half and stopped every ball that came at her! Go Buggy go! 


Sometimes there's not much to do while waiting for the game to start. Haha.


 I'd say we had a successful first day! It was cold, windy, and rained off and on all day, but it definitely could have been worse and the girls played hard and best of all had FUN!
