Rockets End of Season Party!

Tonight, instead of meeting for an hour of soccer practice, we met at Red Brick Pizza four our Rockets end of season party. I'd considered hosting the kiddos at my house for a swim party, but figured it would be a lot easier to do a swim get-together another time. Sofia and CK decided to stay home, so Olivia and I headed to the pizza place. We arrived and all the other girls were already there. We ordered our pizza and salad and Olivia joined her soccer friends. The kids played and talked while they waited for their pizzas. I sat with the parents and we all talked about our upcoming summer plans.

After the girls ate their pizzas, Coach Matt handed out the soccer trophies to each girl. Olivia actually got hers first and had the biggest smile on her face! She was so excited! She normally doesn't like the attention on her but she didn't seem to mind. She held up her trophy and smiled for a picture with Coach Matt. After all the trophies were handed out, Grace's mom Corrie gave each of the girls their own individual cookie with their name written in icing. They almost looked too good to eat! Of course, the girls didn't have a problem gobbling them down. She also picked up a cupcake "cake" of a soccer ball with "Rockets" written on it. It was SO cute and looked delicious! Of course the girls gobbled down a cupcake each too. They were then all crazy with sugar, so we got them together for one final group photo with Coach Matt and Coach Doug. I made sure Olivia thanked each of her coaches individually before we said goodbye to everyone and headed home. They are terrific with the girls and really are trying to teach them all they can about the game. We are so lucky to have them as our coaches and look forward to a great season in the Fall.
