Our girl is an ATHLETE!!!

Kaylie's first soccer practice was on 1/30. She had a great time and did amazing. She is the only girl on her team (giiiirl power!) and had no fear. She ASKED to be goalie after being on the field for less than five minutes. She clearly takes after Mark and not me in this!!! It was so fun to watch her. She loved it and can't wait to go to her first game this weekend.

The kids chose the name of their team and they are officially the Crazy Wild Monkeys. Go Monkeys!!!

All I could do as I watched her was think of my dad, painfully watching me play (or try to play) basketball when I was little. I can only hope that our girl has more athletic ability and competitive spirit than I did when I was little! I love you, Dad, for pushing me to keep trying! xoxo!

Check out the outfit! I figure if she doesn't play well, at least she can LOOK good! :-)


I was so proud of her and she had this little hop step that she'd do... too cute.


Go Kaylie!!!


Our girl was tough. She got knocked down, but hopped right back up and kept playing.


And I think if soccer doesn't work out, she can always try some roller derby!


This is K petting my friend Stephanie Cameron's horse. They have an amazing barn in Camas. We had a great time visiting and K fell in love with the horse and goats.
