More soccer. Get used to it!

Most of our weekend pictures are going to be soccer related for a while. Paige had a game Friday evening and Emma played Saturday morning. Other than that, we didn't do too much this weekend. We got a lot of yard work done on Sunday in between rain showers. Saturday night we had some storms come through that were strong enough to knock down some of the fence, so we had some yard cleanup stuff to do Sunday. Melissa also thinned out all of the plants around the garden pond. The ferns are taking over everything!

Paige played defense and goalie in this game. Her team played well again this week.


Those shorts might be a smidge big.


Using her patented Pat Benetar technique to keep the other team off of the scoreboard.


She didn't want to use her hands, but she still stopped all of their shots.


And here is the graceful Melissa... She was walking backwards and tripped in this hole they had in the field. I think they filled the hole in after she mentioned this to the YMCA people.


Em's team won again. It was 2 or 3 to nothing, but it should have been about 10 - 0. Em's team just missed or hit the post over and over...

Here is Em on a breakaway! It's just her and the goalie...


And this fat-headed dork who decided to just run her over. He caught up with Emma from behind and just ran right through her. And of course, the referee let it go...I guess it's more important to make sure the players tuck their shirts in than it is to make sure the game is played correctly.


Emma getting ready to go around the same fat-head. She totally cut back and left him running the wrong way. Nice!
