First Soccer Saturday

Today was Ellie's first soccer game of the Fall season.  And what a difference a few practices make.  She's dribbling better and now playing forward instead of defense all the time.  She hustled the entire game - 4 quarters!  So proud of her effort and sportsmanship!

Action shot - she's got her  hands in the air ready to kick

Whew!  Good game - but exhausting!

She's sticks close to Coach Frank who always has an encouraging word for her hard work!
