Soccer - week 5

Ruby took on heck of a header today during her game. There was a loud "thump" and she was knocked flat on her bottom. It *had* to have hurt. I had to run around to the other side of the field to check on her and calm her down. Carson, one of the little girls she knows from the opposing team, was very sweet and brought her a drink when she was crying. She pulled it together and got back in for the final 2 minutes of the game. By the time it was over, she decided she didn't even need the ice pack they brought her. Her team won for the second week in a row.



Keithen's team recovered their winning streak this week, beating the other team 6-1. He played against two classmates, Jake and Austin, and another boy he knows, Josh. He always plays more aggressive when his classmates are on the other team. I think he's not shy about really challenging them since he's known them for a couple of years. He was right up on Austin (who is about twice his size) for most of the game. He played really well. Grandpa John, Grandpa Dollar and Grandma Dollar all made it to watch his game.
