Soccer Stars!! Go Strikers!!!

We just finished our first season of soccer with both of the girls playing!!! Whew!!
Leah was back for her 3rd season after a year or so off. Ellie finally made the age requirement! Both of the girls' team names were the "Strikers"!
Leah had a great season and showed big improvement. She still smiles the entire time she is running the field. (Remember: "Daddy, look at my hair blowing in the wind!")? She says she LOVES soccer and wants to play again in the fall.
Ellie had a super first season and she had an awesome coach (Stan!). She loves to run and be with the ball. The most wonderful thing for her was that she had a number on her shirt and pink shinguards and cleats. (She slept in the shinguards for the first few nights after they were purchased!) Another bonus was that she received her first trophy. (She is very aware that Leah has 4!!) The trophy tried to go to bed with her last night, but I thought it was a little too pointy and moved it to her nightstand. I am thankful that my girls are healthy and seem to have their Daddy's athletic ability! Our Creator is amazing!
