A Little Florida Sun

We met up with some of Mary's family for a vacation in Destin, FL. The weather was perfect and the water was clear and warm. Gabbie loved swimming in the ocean and would point to the beach whenever she saw it and say, "swim, swim, Gabbie, swim."

Even More Soccer

No video this time and it's not really needed. The other two videos pretty much sum up what these soccer games are like. Weslie team did good, but the other team seemed to be made up of mostly older girls who better understood what they are doing. Here's Weslie and one of her team mates talking to each during the game.

Soccer: Game Two

For Weslie's second game it was windy and a little bit chilly. Not as many of the girls cried or wouldn't play and they're getting a little more aggressive at getting the ball. Weslie was also getting into the action a little more and not waiting for someone to give her the ball.

First Soccer Game

Weslie had her first soccer game just two days after her first soccer practice. While she didn't score any goals, she did try and best of all she didn't cry. Almost half of the team didn't want to play at first, so Weslie got a lot of playing time. The good news is Weslie's team won.

First Soccer Practice

Not that much has been going on here towards the end of summer. We've been doing a little renovating on the house, basically just some painting, but now that school has started so have all the activities. Weslie will be playing soccer this year and she just had her first practice. How do you teach a bunch of four-years-old how to play soccer? I have no idea, but she likes to run and kick the ball. Stay tune for more news and pictures from the season. Her first game is this weekend.
