Big Soccer Day!

Today was Savanna's first soccer game and Justin's first time coaching a soccer game! Practice started only two weeks ago and we were all anxious to see how Savanna would do. She was pretty nervous when we first arrived because there were a lot of people there already watching games. But once her teammates got there and everyone got excited to play the game, she really got into it. Even one of her classmates was on the opposing team! She didn't start so she got a chance to see what it was going to be like first. When it was her turn to sub in, she started having so much fun and I actually heard her say halfway through the game, "I didn't think it was going to be this fun!" I was so happy to hear her say that and see her having a great time. At this age, they don't keep score, the focus is just to have fun and learn the techniques of the game. Each team scored a lot of goals and Owen and I had fun cheering the teams on.

Savanna is #5:

Good news-Beckham just tore his Achilles Tendon...I think the spot's open for Savanna! I'm so proud and can't wait to see you in action! The 2nd generation of the Soccer highlight reel is fast approaching! Love and Miss you all so much!!
