New Soccer Updates

This was a very exciting weekend. Anna and James had games. Anna's team lost (by a lot) to Sparta, the team had yet to score one single goal. James team might have won, we really don't keep track, so it is kind of handy when you think it might be close to just assume you are in the lead. The best part was that James scored 2 goals. After scoring, he looked up like he wasn't sure what just happened. I hope that he may be starting to understand that if you don't just jump around the ball and actually try to touch it, you can move it.

Anna played another game tonight and Liberty won their first game of the season. Anna (drum roll please) scored the team's first goal!!! I was sooooo excited. My throat hurts from screaming so much. And to make it even better, almost scored the second goal, but her teammate tapped it in just to make sure it made it, so Anna had a great assist. She played so well. We were so proud of her. She came running off the field shouting that we owed her $2. We had made a deal that we would pay her $1 for every goal or assist she made. It was well worth the money.
