Bennett's 1st soccer game

Bennett had her first soccer game on Sunday.  It's crazy because there are 15 girls on her team, so there are 2 consecutive games of 4 on 4 going on next to each other so more kids get to play.  Brandon and the other 2 coaches did a good job of coordinating it all! Bennett did well.  She got some touches on the ball.  She was a little tentative at first, but by the end she was right in the mix with all the girls.  I was mostly impressed with her stamina.  Most of the girls on her team preferred to sit on the bench and tired out quickly.  The coaches were having trouble keeping 4 girls on the field.  Bennett never asked to come out once and played a lot.  Must be all that running she does with daddy that paid off! Grandma Joje and Pa came to spectate, and Miles was a great little cheerleader as well!

She also happened to be playing her best buddy from preschool, Anna's team.   Anna ended up playing on the other field so she and Bennett never actually played against each other.  That was probably good because they most likely would have been having more fun chatting than playing soccer!

 Go #4!!

 Bennett and Anna hadn't seen each other in a little while, so of course they had to compare how many teeth they'd each lost so far! 

Rivals and friends.  :)

Miles just started his own little soccer program on Monday, so now he thinks he should play every time Bennett has practice or a game too.  This should be interesting!
