Opening Day

Madelyn's team name is "The Pink Sparklers"
Obviously it's an all girl team!

Running after the ball

In between the action-Chandler is not used to so much down time at a soccer game, he's usually warming up for his own game.

Madelyn and Chandler had their first soccer games of the season last Saturday. We had to be at Madelyn's game by 7:30 am, and it was already hot! At first, Madelyn was a little hesitant, she just jogged along the side of the action. But after "prompting" from her dad, she started to get in the middle of everything.

Chandler's game was miserably hot. It was humid, over 100 degrees, and it started at 2:00 pm! The boys sat under an umbrella when they were not on the field, but it was terrible. They played ok, not their best, but not too bad for the first game.
