Soccer, Soccer, and More Soccer

Growing up, Farrel played baseball and golf. In high school, I was a cheerleader and played tennis. Neither of us had ever played soccer or even watched an entire soccer game until Laiken picked up the sport a few years ago.

This season, Laiken and Carson are on two leagues each--one rec and one club level. I never planned to be a soccer mom, but sometimes that's how life is...
