This morning Brenna acheived a long-time dream - to play soccer! Oh, she plays in the backyard with Daddy & Cameron, but ever since Cameron played 3 seasons of FFPS, Brenna has been waiting in the wings to be old enough to play her own season!
Bryan took her to the first practice where he said she played timidly. So after this mornings first rotation the coach walked by and gently tapped Brenna on the head and said, "Surprise! Surprise!" (She wasn't timid today!)
Despite pouring rain from about 5 a.m. to 8 a.m. the fields were open, though a bit wet, but oh was it hot and humid. It was muggy like a rain forest!
Brenna loved the game. She played four rotations as forward and one as goalie. FFPS rotates the players so everyone has a chance to play each position. When she was goalie she didn't let in a single goal. Of course, the only attempt went wild to the side.
But as forward she brought the ball two or three times down the field toward the goal. One time she gave it a kick - and it rolled gently over the line - the goalie just looking down at it. They are so cute at this age - the uniforms just swallow them all up!

You can also tell her that the uniform makes her look older. She's growing up so fast!
Woohoo Brenna Sue! She looks adorable and seems to be having fun. Her uniform is too cute and I love the colors on her. I'll have to use one of my Brenna's best quotes here "Who cares if you play good when at least you look good!" Hopefully Brenna S. will have a better soccer career than Brenna R.! :)
Go Brenna! She looks so cute out there and I love your shirt Shelly. Riley wanted to tell Brenna that she played goalie on Saturday too.
