Play Ball

We are trying to get the girls interested in more athletic activities and are excited that Elizabeth signed up to play soccer this fall.  The other day, despite the heat and humidity, we walked to a nearby field and kicked around a ball for a while - so that the girls could burn off some energy and so that we could give them some pointers on soccer - like not using your hands, kicking with the instep of the foot, not the toe, etc.  It was a great way for us to spend some time together as a family and we all had a great time.

Chasing after the ball. 

My little runner. 

Emily has great form. 

Sometimes, she actually made contact with the ball.
