Soccer

This is a video of Mary's first soccer game last spring. She begged to play soccer so we signed her up. Of course as you'll notice our money would probably have been better spent on dance lessons as she dances all over the field.

She does get a goal at the end of this video. However, we probably should put an * next to it because she was playing on the wrong team with younger kids. I'd always taken her to practice but had Doug take her to the first game without me so I could take dinner to a family in our ward. He found a team with yellow shirts and told her to go play with them. I didn't figure it out until after the game when he said something the coach said about practice and kept saying "he said" this or "he said" that. Mary's real coach was a woman! Of course the coach on the younger team never said a word. If we hadn't been such rookies ourselves at kids sports we would have realized the color of the cones around the edge of the field determine what field your supposed to be playing on. Ooops! We'll do better in the future.
