Soccer

Kari decided she wanted to play soccer this spring instead of softball.  We found a place (many thanks to my little fishes) and started practice.  Unfortunately, between travelling for a wedding (more on that to come), rain, and a bit of the tummy bug, Kari hasn't had much of a chance to practice.  But she was totally ready for her first game :)
Having not observed soccer before, I kinda forgot how much (at this age) soccer tends to be everyone chasing after the ball.  There she is.  Number 20, in the middle of the ruckus!
After halftime, between her coach and her daddy, she learned basically what her position as defender is supposed to do.  She did still occasionally get all up in there, but spent a respectable amount of time at the back of the field like she was supposed to.
She was probably the only one there, but hey....  At least she can listen to direction!

She will ALWAYS be the best player on the team because she listens to direction. What a GIRL!!!
