sadie is another one of my soccer gals. we spent a cold, rainy day having fun driving allll over town, searching for any
glimpse of sun, warmth and dryness. we never found that. we did, however, have a lot of fun chatting and catching up!






dramatic and beautiful.


it was pouring down rain. if you look closely, you can see it on the left. you’re a trooper, girl!



you’re so stinkin’ cute.







for like ONE second i was thankful for that rain. the reflections makes the image way cooler.

turns out, twirling an umbrella is much easier when you can actually feel your hands!

my girls are all juniors now (gasp) and you know what that means! they’re all hitting me up for their senior pics. it’s so funny to
think back on when i first met them, all young and innocent. oy vey, now their all LADIES, (mostly ahheemm) mature, with boyfriends
and cars and talking about college! oh brother!.
it’s been so fun watching them grow up and playing a ‘mom’ role in their life except,
i’m not as scary to talk to and i can’t punish them. lol. you’ll be seeing a few more of their faces as the year progresses. with each girl i’ll
share a favorite memory of them.
you’re welcome girls.
i just happen to have a pic from my favorite moment with sadie:
running and sliding headfirst into a puddle of mud during soccer practice.
just because it seemed like a fun thing to do. sadie is on the left.
alyssa above me. rachel, who you all know, to my right. and maggie, longtime friend and the other coach, who you will see on here in
october when she gets married!

love you guuuurl. heart, melanie
