It's Soccer Time

Well, after much talk about dance...we ended up doing soccer instead.  It is through the YMCA and only for 3 and 4 year olds.  This has been a great experience for us and Colleen.  When Russell and I grew up in Jasper, there was NO soccer.  No little league soccer, no junior high soccer, no high school soccer - NO SOCCER at all, so we went into this with no knowledge on how to play the sport except knowing you want to kick the ball into the net and no touching the ball with your hands!  She is learning great coordination, teamwork, balance, and it is even "toughening" her up some!  She enjoys playing the goalie MOST of the time.  She has gotten better with each game.  I look forward to watching her progress in the sport!

I have a couple of slideshows from two of her games.  The first slideshow is from the first game on September 25, 2010.



The next slideshow is from her most recent game on October 16, 2010.



Stay tuned for more game updates!
