Ellie adamently chose to play soccer over dance this winter. But because of the cold weather and piles of snow typical of Minnesota winters, the soccer moves indoors. Dome soccer was a new experience for us!
Dribbling around on the indoor turf that caused the ball to move so fast on such small fields definitely took some getting used to. But before long, Ellie was loving it just as much as she loved playing outdoor soccer. One night after practice she proclaimed, "Mom, I'm going to play soccer all the time and even when I am in college! And then, when I'm a mom, I'm still going to play soccer." Pretty big dreams for a 6-year-old. She has now played soccer continuously for a year and is truly in love with the sport -- not to mention spectacular and so fun to watch!
