Soccer Begins

Soccer season has begun. Ethan and Aubrey are both playing this year and they both have practice on Wednesday nights. Our Wednesdays just became TOTALLY insane! Here is a snapshot of what will be our Wendesdays for some time. I can leave school at 3:30. Aubrey has to be at dance from 4:00-5:00. Ethan has soccer practice across town from dance from 5:00-6:00. Aubrey has soccer practice from 5:30-6:15. We have to pick up Ethan's friend and get them to church (again across town) by 6:45. Derek and I will be doing lots of driving and some tag teaming for sure. I have staff meetings once a month on Wednesdays after school, but we will just cross that bridge when we get to it. At least we get it all over with in one day!

Aubrey did not go to dance since she was still not 100% better. Since her first soccer game in Saturday and she has never played before I really wanted her to try to make it to practice. She was dragging for sure and coughing a lot.

Taking a lap around the field
Can you tell she is dragging....she would not normally be the last one. This girl has lots of energy!

I was a bad Mom and did not have a soccer ball for her. For one thing I did not know what size she needed and it was just enough to get to practice with all our sickness this week. Here she is telling Coach she does not have a ball. I must clarify that there were 7 children who did not have balls and Coach only had 6 extra ones. Again, Aubrey was dragging and slow on the draw to get a ball. At least she looked cute in her little soccer clothes. Three other girls at the fields had the same cute little soccer shorts from Kohls. I must get some Mom points for that:)
Aubrey just walking around without a ball....it was pretty pathetic. After a few minutes Coach had his daughter give her ball to Aubrey.
Now she has a ball. And yes, we got her one that night so she will have one at practice from now on.





Not sure what she is supposed to be doing...poor little thing was so out of it.


We have our first games on Saturday, so I will be sure to take more pictures!
