Soccer Girls

It's fall again!  Not that it's feeling like it yet, :( but that means soccer time!  This year the girls are on the same team and it is awesome!  I love that they are close enough in age that they can share this together!  Plus it is sooo nice to be able to have only one practice and one game a week.  I don't feel like soccer is taking over my life the way I felt last year.  Not to mention I'm not nine months pregnant, or just had a baby, like it was last fall.  We have had so much fun going to the girls game and watching them play together.  It is particularly fun when they both play the same position and watching them work together.  But mostly Lizzy plays forward, partly because she is the best on them team.  And Nellie mostly plays goalie  and she is the best goalie.  Nellie is so funny because sometimes the ball just doesn't come her way during the quarter and if she doesn't think she is getting to do enough saving she will sand back there and fold her arms and pout.  It is really funny. The first game of the season Lizzy scored 3 straight goals, so that was fun to watch.  Also Kevy gets so into the games that every Saturday he loses his voice from screaming so much.  So funny.

 These two girls really do love being together!
 Nellie is going through the awkward smile phase right now,  it is a little painful because she has such a great smile when she isn't trying so hard.

 Lizzy is funny because she is such a natural in front of the camera, she takes such great pictures.
We sure are enjoying watching these two girls.  It sure is fun to have kids getting bigger and getting to watch their activities.
