RAEGAN'S FIRST GAME OF THE SEASON

Before Raegan's game we had to rush to a completely different park
for soccer pictures.
Luckily, it was at the same park and time as Kye's game
so we were able to watch the second half.

I had to beg Raegan to let me put ribbon in her hair!
We showed up and she was the only one with bows.
I can't believe she didn't complain.
She's eight years old...
Do I have to part with that already?!?!
The other girls actually complimented her hair
which is maybe why she was such a good sport about it
Raegan was so lucky to get on a soccer team this season.
We didn't register till the last minute due to finances and so she was at the bottom of the list.
The teams are drafted at this age group
so someone either recognized her name or rank from the previous season
and picked her up!
She is on an excellent team with great coaches!


Her skills are really developing this season.
She plays sweeper {center halfback}
for the most part.


Raegan has great trapping skills
but needs to learn to control her hands!
Luckily they weren't calling handballs or offsides.
She is aggressive and goes after the ball
but is also learning to stay in her zone and pass.


Jason and I get really into her games.
It's exciting and frustrating!
We try to keep composure...
Jas is so cute. He hops up every quarter to give Raegan water and advice.
Did I mention they won their game?
It was a war, but we pulled through 5-4.
You can tell he is so proud of his girls!
