Em's First Soccer Game

The Cowgirls had their very first soccer game this past Saturday morning.  I was pretty excited to see Em in action and it was even more special because Shawn coached.  Our regular coach was out of town, so Shawn volunteered as the assistant coach and took over for this game.  Emily was super excited about her game and even more excited about Daddy coaching.  She had a 10:00 game and it was HOT!!  I think the heat made it tough for all the girls.  Between this being the first game ever for all the girls and the heat, it was pretty rough for them.  It was tough keeping 4 girls out on the field wanting to play, but Shawn did a great job with what he had to work with.  Emily even scored 1 of the 2 goals for our team.  I was soo proud of her!

Warming up before the game







The Cowgirls, minus the coaches daughter who missed the game.

Ready to start the game!


No idea what these 2 are doing. . haha.



Evan and I watched from the sidelines. Sitting for an hour was pretty tough for Evan. We ended up spending some time at the playground, walking around, eating lots of snacks, etc. I was just glad I was able to watch some of the game at least and especially that I got to see Em's goal. Mimi and Papa even came and watched some of Em's game.


After the game, we went out to lunch with the Terry's and being in the a/c seemed to help everyone's mood! Next week we have a 9:00 game, so I'm hoping it won't be quite so hot!

Also, just because I hadn't gotten around to posting them yet, here are a few more pictures from soccer practice over the last 2 weeks.
