Sydney's Soccer (Aug. 1, 2008)

Sydney had a great summer playing soccer for Hamlin. She only had to miss a few games when she was gone away to camp. Overall her team did really well. It seemed that there were always a few girls missing and one little girl had an injury from the start. They rarely had any subs and ran their butts off!! We were so proud of Syd and it was so hard for Dave to keep it down on the side line. I often had to remind him that she had a coach.



Tatum had a good time at the games too. She mostly colored or played with her own soccer ball. The last game was a bit crazy. The sky was really dark and looked like it might storm at any moment. Tatum wore her new bird hat for the occasion.




This was the sad picture and the look of defeat. Poor girls walking off the field at the end of the last game. They were exhausted and had all had been playing the whole game with no subs. The other team had a plenitude of substitute players and had beat us. Just look at those long faces........





But then she gets her trophy and the world is a happy place once again:)
