First day of soccer!

Sydney had her first soccer practice on the Kickeroos team this week.  She has been excited for weeks to get to play soccer.  Her team consists of 3 and 4 year olds, and they really only have "practices" to learn the basic skills.  The last few practices, they will get to play little scrimmages. 

The first practice was overall a really good one.  There was, of course, the mixture of emotions- giddiness to finally get to play, determination to score a "gold", tears for who knows why, and lots of laughter.  Check out the highlights:

If I run into the net, does that count??

Gooooooo Sydney!

Look at that intensity.

Pure excitement.

BFFs.

Ummm... I think you're supposed to use your feet.

Well done, teammate.
