Game in Lakewood

Yesterday I went to a high school soccer game in Lakewood. The ride there was supposed to be about an hour long but there was a crash so we got held up for a while. We played our game after the JV team had played theirs. The Lakewood team was pretty good we were tied the whole entire game which is 80 min. After that we had to go into OT (overtime) which consists of two five min. halves at the end of both halves there was still not a score. So we had to go into a shoot out which is when each team picks out 5 players to shoot on the goalie. We ended up losing in the shoot out we were pretty bummed we just know we have to go out and work harder at practice. After the game we went to Safeway to get dinner then we headed home. During the game the ball got kicked at my hand and it bent 1/3 of my thumbnail backwards, so my coach had to push it back into position it was JUST GREAT. lol What I thought was really neat though was that our team prayed twice during the game. We have a few people on our team that go to church but the rest don't really know anything about the Lord. I just hope that I get some more opportunities to witness to some of them. I left my house at 2 o'clock and got home at 10:30. So far it has been a great experience!!

- First High School Soccer Game -

Today I had my first high school soccer game. I scored a goal and we ended up winning. Since I have started my high school soccer I have been trying to get Jordan to do cross-country. But she kept saying no. Then the coach called her because he heard she had been running and she ended up going the next day. I'm so glad she is doing I think she'll end up having a lot of fun!! School is going pretty good we are still getting in the swing of things though. I am doing my church choir with Jordan and Zach I think it will be fun. I am so happy we got some hot weather before Fall.
