Caden's first Soccer game

Caden had her first soccer game on Saturday. It was so cute!!! Here are a few action shots of little miss! The first two pictures are from them practicing before the game! Awe - doesn't she look so cute!!




The next few pictures are a little misleading. They actually make it look like she was a "real part" of the game. I mean, of course she was actually on the team, but I mean not quite a real contributor as these pictures make it seem. Here are a few where she was really close to the ball. The first one is right after she kicked it to start the new quarter and I guess the other one she just got lucky.





Here is a picture of her throwing it in.


Here is a picture of her and 3 other girls on the team.


In total there are 6 girls and 4 boys. Two of the boys are pretty good and seem to know what they are doing. One little boy (who is a little shy) didn't get to kick the ball when he was first out there and cried the rest of the game and would never go back in. Poor thing, hopefully he will be more happy next game. Also a few of the girls have some sort of clue. Caden is not one of those girls. She is definitely one of the more timid ones on the team. I know it is shocking - how can my child be timid? Odd but true! Sometimes she would run around (usually on the outskirts or behind the action) but mostly she would just stand around until I yelled for her to run. PLEASE NOTE: I yelled to her - not at her. However she did have a lot of fun and that is the most important part!


Not that it matters at this age, since no score is kept, but we did win. Caleb kept score anyway. After our team scored about the 6th goal he said, "man we are smokin' the other team." I don't have a clue where he gets his competitiveness. - HA!!
