4th Soccer Game

O.K., so today we played our 4th game of the season against WA! We tied 1-1! We played of artificial turf! It is really weird! It is so fake, but I guess that we play well on it! And the crazy thing is, that we only had 12 people come, so we only had one sub!! :/ BECKY GOT THE FIRST GOAL OF THE SEASON!! I know, crazy, huh?!! It was a really awesome shot!! She did a great job! It was an awesome high shot right over the keeper from the left corner of the goalie box! It was beautiful! lol! Anyways, the game was dedicated to Katelyn, one of the girls on my team, who broke her collar bone and dislocated her shoulder last Wednesday, so she can't play any more. :( But anyways, I think that we played well because we had sort of a reason for winning, it wasn't just to win, but it was for Katelyn! Anyways, that's my story....hope you like it!

3rd Soccer Game

O.K., So last Saturday, we played S {see note [at the bottom }. It was an interesting game, to say the least! Before the our game, at Naomi's game, it was pouring, but the rain stopped for our game! Yea! I was very excited, because we were still tied 0-0 at half time!! This is the first time since the beginning of the season [I know, the season just started, but still, it was exciting :)] that we have been tied at the half! We kept the ball on their side of the field most of the game, we just didn't take enough shots. Soooo...at the end of the game, the score was 0-1 and we lost, but we were all very happy that it hadn't been 10-0 or something crazy like that! I think that the score should have been still 0-0 at the end of the game, because their goal was off-sides, but that's o.k., the ref has a HUGE field to cover, and she did a pretty good job. But obviously, the S girls and coach didn't think that the ref did a good job because after the ref blew the whistle to signal the end of the game, one of the S girls said "thanks for nothing ref" and I think that she also said a bad word. The ref got really mad, and started yelling at her, telling her that she shouldn't talk to her that way, and other things. Then, the coach {surprise!! I thought that the coach was the one who was supposed to be telling his players not to talk like that!} of S started saying bad things about the ref, like, he said that he had seen bad refs, but that one was the worst he's seen. I admit that she didn't do a perfect job, but she didn't do that bad! I mean, talking like that is just plain rude and disrespectful! If a player and a coach say stuff like that, and they say it more than once, they should not be able to participate or something! The first time, they should get a warning, then if they repeat it, someone should do something about it! I didn't think that people should get that worked up over a couple bad calls! But anyways, enough about that! It was a pretty good game, and when we play them on their own field {the last game of the season} we are going to beat them! It was really cool after the game, because we got to see two of the people who were on my team last season play, and a girl who was on Ashlee's basket ball team last winter decided to play soccer, and is on the girls who used to be on my team's team [did you get that?!]. Anyways, we got to see some people we knew! And I guess I'll close now...SOCCER ROCKS!!
~*Note* I'm not going to use the team name, I'm just going to use the first letter of the town for a team "name" for safety reasons {now that we are on a "real" travel team, the teams don't have team names, they just use the city name, for example, G-U 14 City [Girls Under 14 city]}~

First and Second Soccer Games of the Fall '06 Season

Hi everyone! I'm sorry I took so long to write about my soccer games! The season started two Saturdays ago. We lost, 0-5. I thought that my team played really well for our first game! We get to play the team again, so I hope we'll win next time!! Last Saturday's game, we played away. We lost, 0-7. We played terribly. We were bunching, passing the ball to the other team, and letting the other team have the ball by not going after it! It was just not a good day for us!! I really, really hope that we start playing better! It was really hot for both of the games, too.

Romans 4:18-25

Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, "So shall your offspring be." Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead-since he was about a hundred years old-and that Sarah's womb was also dead. Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what He had promised. This is why "it was credited to him as righteousness." These words "it was credited to him" were written not for him alone, but also for us, to whom God will credit righteousness-for us who believe in Him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.

James 1:12

"Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him."

100th POST!!

HI!! This is the 100th post [yea!], so I thought I'd put something special!!

Psalms 23
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
He leads me beside quite waters,
He restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life,
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
