t because I play, for heaven's sake. Because in addition to Kellye returning to the Blue Dolphins, GU13 league, Laurie is also beginning her first season of soccer.Practice has been going on now for a few weeks: Kellye on Tues/Thurs at 5:15; Laurie on Thurs at 5:45. That in itself, has been hard on Thurs with trying to get to 2 different places with conflicting start and end times.
The first games of this season were on Feb 28th. Kellye played at 12:30 and
Laurie later on in the afternoon. Not too bad! The worst part of the day was the gusting, cold winds that had dead grass pieces flying through the air like snowflakes blowing in blizzard conditions. We were covered with pieces of dead grass throughout the day, from head to toe. I've still got grass-covered blankets to wash!The second games of this season were this past Saturday, March 7th. This could have been a disaster since both Kellye and Laurie
had games starting at 4:30 (and on opposite ends of the soccer complex). However, Kellye opted to skip her game and travel with Maxine and her family to San Angelo, where the newly-formed girls' select soccer team played on Saturday.We watched the little girls play and at half-time I raced to see how the Blue Dolphins were getting along. 
As Laurie's game ended, we went and checked again, to find the older girls were just ending their game. It was fortunate I didn't have to try to watch both girls play at the same time! What a hike!

What a hike!I haven't posted Laurie's games to my calendar yet so I'm not sure if we'll have additional dates that may be a problem. I should be happy that Kellye is still playing with Big Country Soccer (BCSA) rather than joining the select team. I just couldn't manage the traveling games right now and keep Laurie playing simultaneously!!
