Bragging Rights

Makenna has now done something that neither Cameron or Erin has accomplished in their respective 4 years of soccer.
In tonight's exciting game, Makenna dribbled the ball in from about 15 yards away and made a goal! It gave her a lot of adrenaline-charged energy for the rest of the game!

Reactions were mixed.

Mom and Dad were happy that our yearly investment in soccer fees has finally paid back a bit, thought it is like winning a $1.00 back on the nickel slots after having lost $50....
Cameron was off playing, but when he heard the news his first comment was, 'I never played in a league without a goalie.' (Makenna did have to navigate through 2 defenders thought).
After the game Cindy asked Makenna if she liked soccer now. "No, it's too boring... except when I make a goal!"

At the dinner table we gave her a 'round of applause,' and she repeatedly bowed and said 'Thank you.'

Atta girl!
