Soccer Mom, Again!

I am so happy to report that I survived another weekend of being a soccer mom! I absolutely love watching my girls play! Our seasons are different in that we practice and practice (every M-W-F), but then just have 1 or 2 tournaments. This was our final tournament, and it was a big one. The girls had school on Thursday, then played a game right after school. Then they came back to school on Friday and played 3 games that night! We also had another 2 games on Saturday. They were WORN OUT! Here are some pictures from the weekend.

Twinkles Toes is a defender and man, she kicks it hard for a little girl who got her nickname because she used to walk on her tiptoes!

 Look at this shot!

 Firstborn played goalie again. I had no idea how stressful this game could be. They tied several times and had a "penalty kick" tie-breaker. Firstborn tackled the balls like a pro. I laughed with my mom who described the exact scenario to me. My nephew had to block for the tie-breaker. My mom couldn't watch!

 I like to watch her on the field, much better for my heart. My friends laughed as I watched her block...I ducked, I tapped, I clinched my hands, then I flew out of my seat when she caught it! I've named it Post Soccer Stress Syndrome.

 Here's one shot with the girls together. It was a great season, and this soccer mom not only survived it, she loved it!
