Nuestra Nueva Casa

Finally getting around to posting some pictures of the house on Mia Linda Court. It really is a great place and we are enjoying the space and the hot tub! I didn't show the girls' rooms because they were too messy!

BYU vs. Santa Clara, Soccer, etc.

The girls, Sarah, and I attended the BYU vs. Santa Clara Women's Soccer game a few weeks back. Unfortunately with Tracey's surgery she couldn't go with us--we missed having her there. :( We still had fun and kept Tracey in our thoughts. We ate on campus and the girls got Santa Clara hoodies (hey, they don't sell BYU gear there--haha!) The game ended up in a draw 0-0. It would have been fun if there had been some scoring, but oh well. Brandi Chastain is an assistant coach and the girls got to meet her after the game and get a picture with her thanks to Aunt Sarah. Here are some pics from the game.

Before the game we walked the campus. Sarah took this picture which I love.

Here are some random pictures of the girls from this season and some Cross Country pictures.

Eureka Strikers Folsom Cup Classic Champions!!

Lily's team participated in the Folsom Classic Cup Tournament this last weekend and won the championship for their age group! Lily has typically played defense but in this tournament her coach played her in the mid-field and Lily did not disappoint. She scored three goals in the three games leading up to the finals. In the final we played a tough Folsom team and it was tied 1-1 at half time. With about 10 minutes left one of Lily's players was making a run up the left side. Lily shot up the right flank and the cross came just as she reached the goal and she got her leg onto it and nailed it in! It was an incredible goal and wound up being the winning goal. The crowd and players went crazy!

Eureka Strikers win the Folsom Classic Cup!!

Claire played as a guest player for her previous Select team. They were glad to have her back for the tournament!
