Danni's First Soccer Practice!

"You have to kick the ball, Danni!!"
"No, I luff my ball!" 

She got over it and showed some pretty fancy footwork!

Playing games with Coach Gabriel!

Balancing act!  

Ringleader!

Training the Beast...

Getting ready for a throw-in!

I practiced right after Danni got done!  It still makes me smile!

Yay!  Soccer is back in season!!  And, now that Danni is 2 1/2, she can play too!!  She was SO excited to put on her pink 'crusher shoes' and join in the action.  She also was super proud of her brand-new pink soccer ball.  It rode in the car with us everywhere for about a week before soccer started, and everywhere we went, she'd ask, "Are we playing soccer now?"  She minded her coach and played all of the games just perfectly!!!  My class started back up -- but I'm in the big boy league now, so I play when it's dark!!!  It was just as much fun as I remember it!
