Soccer has begun....

 The fall 2016 soccer season has begun and that means that Nora finally gets to play soccer. She has wanted to play soccer for the past year as she has watched Reese play for the past couple of years. Nora was really excited that she got to wear a purple uniform and that her team name was the "purple butterflies". In her first game, Nora was super excited and ran out on the field. Her teammate ran down the field and scored a goal and Nora started bawling and ran off the field crying, "I didn't win the game. I didn't win the game." I was trying to comfort her and explain that her teammate scoring was a good thing.....as well as trying not to laugh. Another thing that was pretty funny was when the other team had been scoring a lot of goals. Nora was sick of it and she decided to take things into her own hands. It was her turn to kick off and she saw the other team in front of her so she quickly kicked the ball behind her and headed to her own goal. She is hilarious!  Nora has had a lot of fun playing even though she just runs along side of the crowd with the ball. We have absolutely loved watching her play soccer.


Reesie also started another season of soccer. I didn't think she wanted to play again, but she told us she wanted to play and we thought we would try another season. She was really excited because we found out that 2 of her cousins were on her team. Although the 3 little cousins were not too aggressive, they had a lot of fun together.
