Yes, with happiness (and a little sadness) I would like to announce, Kenzie is ready for soccer!! Last Saturday, Mandy Dudley mentioned to me that Gracie was on a 3 & 4 year old soccer team. She said Chris was coaching and they needed more players. This team is only to teach the children fundamentals. They won't play actual games, only scrimmage. I called Jared immediately to discuss. He was just as excited as I was to get her on this team. Tuesday, on the way home from work, I called Jared and asked him if he would be interested in coaching Kenzie's team (to help Chris with 15 kids). I knew Kenz would love it if he was by her side coaching. Also, he would get to be the coach of Makenzie's very first sport ever. He, of course, agreed. I called the president of the league and that was it, he is Assistant Coach. So, I am thrilled that Jared will get to be her coach. Makenzie is too. I picked her up from school and told her she would be on Gracie's soccer team and even better... Daddy was going to be her coach. She screamed "YAY!" and asked if she could call him. LOL
Yesterday Jared took her to get her cleats, shin guards, sox's, AND... a soccer ball. Unfortunately, they got home and the shin guards were too small for our, fast growing, little girl. So they will go get a new pair and I plan on getting her Umbro shorts to match her Umbro (pink and black) cleats and shin guards this weekend.
Here is a picture of Makenzie in her cleats with her soccer ball.
