Are you kidding me? I am not sure who picked the name of Ashton's soccer team. Maybe they like Dora or something. Seriously. It is a team of all girls...so you would think that it would be a little bit more girly! Oh well. Maybe they just assigned team names!
Ashton had her 1st soccer game today! Thankfully, it is indoor soccer since it was 40 degrees and raining!! It was going to be a long game since they only had 4 players! So, they all 4 had to play the entire 40 minute game! Ashton was doing great until she was playing goalie and another player's Dad apparently yelled to "GET THE BALL!" or something like that. Ashton was SO embarrassed that she wouldn't play for the next five minutes or so! Poor girl. That Dad is far too serious about the GAME and PLAYING WELL for a 4 year old team that is just learning to play and trying to have a good time too! She was begging me to let her off of the field! Not an option since they only had 4 players today! Sorry baby! Finally, she decided to go back and play! Maybe it had something to do with picking out a surprise at Target...Just maybe!
Well, the Explorers didn't win, but they played very well! I think that the other team had a couple of years of experience, and most of the Explorers haven't ever played soccer before. I am pretty sure that the Explorers only scored twice, but Ashton got one of the goals!! Way to go, Ashton!
