GO ANGELS!

This year, Livie decided she wanted to play soccer. Not only did she want to play soccer but her dad decided that he would coach. The sceptic that I am, I was a little concerned. First, Livie is my most timid child and I worried about her being afraid on the field. Second, if you know my husband, he is NOT timid and VERY competitive and I didn't know how that would mix with 8 and 9 year old girls. I am pleased to say that I was MOSTLY wrong. I wasn't wrong that Tim is not timid and VERY competitive (some things are just predictable.) Livie, however, has NOT been timid and has gotten in the game and even scored a goal. Tim is great with the girls and has really been taking time at practices to teach them. They all seem to be having a great time and the parents have enjoyed Coach Tim along with his asst. coach, Joe. One parent said that she was so glad that Tim yell's so loud in the game because all the parents know what he is saying and don't have to yell to their own daughters - he does it for them. Here are a few shots from one of the games.

Livie (notice the socks pulled up over her knees - it was COLD that morning.) You can't see Livie very well but she is the one in front of #8 going for the ball.

Looking Coach-like!

After the game! BIG WIN!

I hate to say this because the girls have one more game to go but they are undefeated so far.

They are a good little team with 2 good coaches that have taught them to work as a team.
