Grasshoppers

Last week we didn't have a soccer game to report on because we didn't play...well, Gabi didn't play. We had such a downpour and the coach was out of town so we hadn't heard whether the game was still on or not. We opted to not go stand out in the non stop pouring rain and have Gabi play in it. So, this week was lots better! In fact, we were actually sweating while watching the game! She played against the Grasshoppers and Gabi played defense and Goalie this week again. Ben had to fill in as Assistant Coach because our Coach was out of town again so Trenton took over the videography for me for a while, until he told me after the first period that the disk was full. I had to take the camera and turn the miniDV over and would you believe during the short amount of time, Gabi scored a goal!!! Yes, she was on defense and yes, she scored a goal! HAHA! Her eyes lit up, she looked right over to her cheering section, hands in the air, jumping up and down, yelling "yes!" It was an awesome moment and I missed it on tape. I was so mad at myself but I had tears in my eyes knowing she was so excited! A moment to remember! That one goal made up for the fact that our team lost 2-5 this week. Looking forward to next week's game and watching Gabi play some offense!
