Soccer time!

Grace and Caroline had their first soccer games of this season last Saturday, March 27th.
Grace played really well. She prefers to play defense. I think she gets nervous playing offense because she feels pressured to score points. She has a really tough but awesome coach. I think he will do a great job at teaching her to play a smarter game. Grace didn't score any points, but she prevented a few goals by the other team. They practice twice per week, and they get worked really hard. It's gonna take her a while to get out of her couch potato mode!
Caroline loves soccer! She has really learned a lot just watching Grace play over the last few years. Her team has gotten a rough start though. The U6 teams only practice once a week, and we have only had one real practice due to cancellation. And her teammates haven't all shown up. But it will get better once spring breaks and easter breaks are over. Caroline did really well in her first game. She and Grace played at exactly the same time, so Sam and I switched at half time so we could both watch both girls play some. I watched Caroline the first half and she was apparently just getting warmed up because once I left to go watch Grace she scored 3 goals! I think offense is gonna be her fave. She likes to hog the ball and score points.
Don't everybody rush out to see them play though cause I think they'd both probably clam up and not play if they knew someone important was watching them! LOL
