Super Soccer Champ!

Today was a fun day.  Noelle had her year-end soccer tournament - which at her age means they all play and everyone gets a medal :)  They did a great job and won 2 out of 3 games!  Noelle's coach gave out individual awards and named Noelle "Best Defender" because nobody gets past the half line when she plays.

Apparently Noelle is good (of course I always thought so, but as her mother I bet my opinion is biased, lol) because her coach said she was the perfect sweeper.   Since I never played soccer I had no idea what she meant.  I guess a sweeper is a defender who sits just past the half line and then give the ball one hard kick right back up to the forwards so they can attempt to score.  So, when we were all calling her the "one kick wonder" because she never kicked the ball more than that - she was doing the right thing.  I feel dumb!

So, here are some pics I got with the crappy camera.  Seriously, if you are reading my little blog and want to give me a DSLR to review, please feel free.  I would not object.  At all.  Anyway...

Love her.
