GOOOOOOOOOOAAAALLLLLLLLL!

We've never been into rewarding our girls for scoring goals...not because we are against that sort of thing, but because our girls have combined for a total 1 goal over the last 3 years. That is until this week.



In the first 30 seconds of Ellie's game, she had her first goal ever. About a minute later, she surprised us with another. Then, moments later, she scored again...and again...and again. Before we knew it, she had scored 9 goals, and she became too tired to go anymore. That is until we mentioned that she could get ice cream if she scored 1 more. She promptly went out and added 2 more for a total of 11 goals!



On the way home, Aubrie negotiated a similar deal that if she scored 2 goals, we could all go out to ice cream as well. That extra motivation was just enough to get some of her kicks into the net as she scored 2 goals tonight.



Even Kyler couldn't be left out as he got to have some milk for his reward for being such a good sport at the soccer games.
