So stinking fun!!! What a great day! Samy cracks me up because she is a scrawny little string bean, but man, can she take it (and give it) on the soccer field! She just started her second season with the team. This week was the toughest game yet. The opposing team towered over just about every one of our kids. And they were good. Real good. And dirty. Every time you looked at number 6 he had his foot stuck out tripping someone, or an arm out elbowing someone. At one point, he and Samy collided and took each other down. Bless her little skinny heart, she got right up and kept going. After that, she was elbowing right back! I gave her a tiny pep talk during the next break. I said: "don't ever hit push first, but if someone pushes, hits or trips you, you do it right back to them! Don't take it." Good girl listened to Mommy.
After Samy's game, Maren and I came home and dolled her all up for her first dance competition.
She entered into a team competition where her and three other girls are performing a lyrical dance. They've worked really long and hard. Today was the first of four competitions that the group has entered. They did such a good job. The only down side is that she was starving and I kind of forgot to feed her lunch because we were a little late. So imagine how much better she can do when she's not famished!
I couldn't take pictures of the performance because it's illegal, but they really did do a great job. So beautiful.
Fun, fun special Saturday.

Samy looks so cute out there. She looks like a pro. I love the ribbons in her hair flying behind her.
Maren looks so beautiful. I kind of can't believe that it is illegal to take pictues...but I guess it is for safety reasons...so you don't blind the dancers and make them fall down or something, right?
YAY for a post. I thought you had all washed away or something! Go sammy and Maren!
