(Mollie always does silly things after she scores a goal....this was her "crazy hands" goal!)
Regan is a natural athlete. She can literally score goal after goal after goal....IF she chooses to. It can be really frustrating to watch her play when she isn't trying because we know she isn't applying herself! Chad finally had enough and told her that if she didn't want to play we would take her out of soccer completely. That did something to her because the next game she scored 6 goals!! Regan also has great ball handling skills and control of the ball. Unlike the rest of her team, she insists on keeping the ball close to her and "making moves" on other girls! She is one talented kid!!
(Regan's team has gotten into the habit of cheering for their team on the sideline...so cute!)

What can I say about my Carli....she LOVES soccer! Not only does she love it, she is GREAT at it! Carli is the hardest working 8 year old I've ever seen (she gets that from her father). She never gives up and always wants to do her best, so she always gives 100%. Carli's footwork, dribbling, and ballhandling skills are amazing! I've seen her face to face with an opponent and literally tap the ball with her pinky toe, twist around in a full circle, grab the ball with her other foot and take it down the field! She usually plays forward or mid because she likes to run and she is FAST. The opposing coaches are constantly making comments about how fast she is and what good handling skills she has :) She will be trying out for the academy team next season and if she makes it, I have a feeling we will be watching her play soccer for a long time!!
