Soccer!

Leah’s been saying for a while that she wanted to be a professional soccer player when she grows up so we thought we’d better sign her up to play for the first time. You have to sign up way in advance!

She’s on team Germany. 

  

They passed out shirts based on number preference & not size! She picked #7, which fits like a dress!
