Soccer

This past Saturday was my very first soccer game.  When we arrived I saw all the people, cars, goals, fields, oh I could go on and on.....I was so overwhelmed!!  I told my mama that I did not want to play or be there but once my team arrived and I settled in the feeling went away.  We had only once practice prior to this game and it was in about 30 degree hailing, raining, freezing weather and basically I kicked a ball so when the game began you can imagine how it went.  Daddy was amazed how well I learned just over the course of the one day (we played 4 -12 minute games and took turns so it was 3 on 3.)  I even scored a goal!!  Although I scored, I don't remember when it was or even that I scored ;)  I ended up having fun and am looking forward to more practices and games this Spring!

Before the game!

March Madness!

Here I am again, running behind.  Whew, this school thing takes up a lot of time, blogging has been at the back of my mind ;)  This March has started with a bang.  We had a beautiful weekend last weekend and were busy enjoying the beautiful place we live.  This past week we had a great visit with my Grandma Bonnie who came to celebrate Sam's birthday with us and see the family.  I am doing great in school and wanted to share some pictures from the "Fun Run" this past week.  It definitely lived up to its name and I had a blast.  Happy March friends and family!

This is what happens when we have a nice, warm, sunny day in March.

Boulevard Park, a wonderful place!

Who taught me these poses?  (How do girls automatically know how to do this? Oh my!)

And then we came home for dress up time

Fun times!

Nice work Maggie!

Fairy Lily is ready to run laps and raise money for the school

And she is off....

I love this!! My brother wanted to run too so I let him run with me a lap while holding hands.  He then rested and I grabbed him for a second time around.  (So sweet!)

Me and my friend Emmy

I won a prize for all my green!

This was taken at the St. Patrick's Day parade.  We had a good day and even did our annual scavenger hunt at home.

This is my whole class after the run.  The next morning I told my mama I needed a cane, I was so sore.  I ran over 2 miles!!
