soccer highlight videos- Katelyn!

So I really thought Katelyn wasn't going to play soccer this year!  But when sign-up time came around she really wanted to do it, so we talked about it and she promised she wouldn't complain about going to the games. :)  So we signed her up, and I requested that she be on a team with her friend Danny- which turned out perfect just like I planned!  They aren't in the same class at school this year, so she was always happy to see him at soccer and she never complained. :)  Anyway, I'm so glad she played, because she really improved this year and I"m proud of her.  She got a lot better at running all over the field (instead of just staying in one place) and she touched the ball a few times each game (instead of like once a game last year!).  Her coach really tried to teach them things, like to kick the ball 3 times in a row, not just kick it once and let it go.  Katelyn's good at following directions, so when her coach kept telling her to run back and defend, she started to get it.  She developed a lot better sense of the game this year. And she did great the couple of times she got to play goalie.  
So here's Kate, in most of the middle clips she's in BRIGHT pink shorts so she's easy to spot, and she's #35.  She's so funny, mostly just running around. :)  In the last clip (after the Eric and Owen part- I had to record that because Owen was laughing SO HARD and they were being hilarious) she's wearing black shorts and she dribbles the ball a little!  She probably did that 3 or 4 other times during the season too- very impressive for her. :)
