Soccer

After a brief stint trying out cross country, Olivia decided to join the 7th grade soccer team at school. She has been going to practices every day after school and working really hard! She has not played (other than gym class and the like) so had a lot of catching up to do!
I managed to miss her first game last week, but she has 2 home games this week. On tuesday she tweaked her knee in gym class so rode the bench for that game... So, yesterday Bill and I picked the other 2 up at school, and made it over to watch her play. I was disappointed earlier in the week to watch her sit the bench, but yesterday she played! My little point and shoot had a hard time catching her in action, but she did so well! We are really proud of her for picking up an sport... and sticking with it! They tied, and it was a pretty good match- tuesday they got stomped, and last week they also tied... so all in all the team is doing well I think, and it should be fun to follow the girls the rest of the season!
