Soccer Star

A few weeks ago Princess got her first athletic award. At her last soccer practice everyone received a participation medal:

 I can not exactly say this award was well-deserved. During most practices she would run off the field for some reason or another and not want to return to practice. She might be tempted by the swing set or come over to antagonize her brother. And if a dog was at the field...forget it. No way would she be go back to practice. 

Then there was the time she got sidelined for throwing grass.....

Anyway, her team had a end of season party and despite it being December, it was hot outside:

I am not sure we will play soccer next year. It doesn't seem to be her "thing", but overall it was a good experience and I'm so glad we tried.
