Stella plays soccer

We are very proud of Estella for trying out yet another new sport, soccer.  Her team this year was Team Ireland.  These pictures were taken on a couple of weekends in October when the mornings were a frosty thirty something degrees.  The season started just after Labor Day and at that point we were still putting ice in our drinks.  Stella is not the star of her team, she often doesn't know where the ball is or which way her team's goal is.  She's more interested in running amok on the field and tackling her friend Mason and playing keep away but - she has happily made it to every game and I think that's a pretty awesome attitude to have about something new that you're not very good at yet.

Good game!
