SOCCER MOMS ROCK...

really, and I am speaking from experience, they do!!! Having your children in soccer is all consuming; we have practice 3 days a week and then the games on Saturdays. It is always so exciting when it first starts in early August and then towards the end of the season in early November I am so done. The girls both love to practice and play and have really enjoyed this season. Their teams are doing well but most importantly they are just having so much fun out there. I did not ever play soccer when I was young and did not have the desire at all, gymnastics was more my thing. I really missed out though, because I love the whole teamwork aspect of it. The games are also a lot of fun to watch and I find myself despite others around trying to distract me really into the games.

Taryn’s team name is the FIREBALLS

Whenever the coach asks who wants to play goalie Taryn is always the first to raise her hand.
For a parent however, it is the hardest position to watch.

We notice with Taryn the more we cheer the faster she runs. GO TARYN!!!!

Girls always need cute bows in their hair for sports. The bigger the better.

Too cute! I wish I would have done some active things when I was young. I think ballet just kept me a little to prissy! I love the buffed out shin-guards & frilly bows!
