GOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!

We just returned from Emma's last soccer game of the season. It was snowing...can you believe that it was snowing on the 11th of October? Crazy. Emma is all business when she steps onto the soccer field. She really has a talent. I am a little biased, but she is a very good player. I cannot believe how good her footwork is. She has made at least one goal each game and her team won every game with the exception of today, which ended in a tie. Her goal today was incredible. She was sliding on the ground going one direction and kicked the ball about 25' in the other direction for a goal! For a nine year old girl that was pretty awesome to see!
These photos were taken a couple of weeks ago while the weather was still warm. In the picture above she is waiting on the sidelines to return to the game.
This is her team at half time getting a pep talk from her coach...Aryl. He is a very patient man. He was great with all ten of the nine year old girls. They really liked him.

These are just more pictures of the same game. I can't wait to see how much she improves over the winter. Her next season is in the spring with the same team. Go Emma and continue to be an animal on the field!

Way to go Emma! I bet had the weather been better, the game would have ended with a win for their team! But what an awesome season for her and her team!!!!!:)
