The Girls Playing Soccer Together

Taylor continues to attend soccer practice at the Williamsburg Indoor Sports Complex and now Hayden has become an unofficial member of the class! She has been following along with Tay for the last year and now she has really been making an attempt to participate in all of the activities. Coach Chris had even given her a t shirt and let her score a goal at the end of class. It is hilarious to watch the girls warm up together! Hayden is still working on getting both feet off of the ground at the same time for jumps and both of them have their own jumping jack style! Of course Hayden makes sure to include SEVERAL snack breaks into the 45 minute class.... that's our girl! Taylor has been really supportive and encouraging. She tries to help out her little sis and explain game rules to her as well. Taylor continues to perfect her ability to really play up an injury- you can totally tell she watches a lot of soccer with her daddy! The way she throws herself down on the ground and rolls in pain and then magically jumps up and continues on is impressive! It is so fun to go to class and see what they are able to do now and participate with them in the activities. Soon Taylor will have to move up to the next class so we are just taking it in and enjoying the time....... I have a feeling this won't be the last time they will be on the same soccer field together :)



These photos were taken on the last day of the session. All of the kids were presented with a medal... so excited!!! It was during the Olympics so it made it extra special for them!



They start off on the white line. Coach Chris asks them the question of the day and then they do a warm up. Hayden just got a new ball and decided that she just wanted to sit on it!



Taylor is into BEING FIRST or right next to Coach Chris


Girls participating in the obstacle course


I thought that this was funny because it was right around the time of the Olympics and I seem to remember an Olympian causing an uproar when a girl did something similar to his medal in a bar....hmmmmmmmm! She did this on her own!!! Why? I have no idea!!!


Taylor and her buddy Ella


So proud! Of the medal and the fact that we got her hair into piggy tails!


Yes they wore the medals for days! Hayden ended up falling on hers and bleeding all over the ribbon....... lots of blood and sweat went into that medal!
