Buzz on Bumblebees!

Saturday morning was SO MUCH FUN!

Meet our favorite Murphy Bumblebee--#12 Lila Lou!

 

Her daddy was so happy that his girly girl was all about playing soccer this fall.

Her team did their warm-ups and then had a pep talk from Coach Clay.

Maddie was so into the whole game and kept giving Lila pointers while she was waiting with Henlee for the second quarter.  So cute!

 

We told Lila that she had to be aggressive and go get the ball.  She's been really timid at their practices, so we had no idea what to expect at the game.  No need to worry, though!  This little girl was all over the ball!  She played good offense...

and defense, too.

Then she took that ball the length of the field...



and scored her VERY FIRST GOAL!!!

She was so proud and there was lots of "Go Lila!" from the stands!

That was all she needed to keep up the hard work:)

The Bumblebees have some work to do, like not tackling your own teammates, but they did so good!  Thank goodness Lila's used to wrestling with her brother so she stood her ground with this kid.  I think he must have wanted to score a goal, too.  Teamwork, dude!

High fives from her daddy for a job well done.

After resting during the third quarter, she went back in for the fourth.  Our #12 cut this little girl off and got the ball away from her.

Then she dribbled it down the field and scored a second time!

Her whole team came over and high-fived her.  Way to go, Lila!

She was the first one to run through the tunnel and was grinning from ear to ear.  The Bumblebees won big, too.  A very successful start to their season.

Thanks, Lila, for putting on a great show for your fanclub!  We love you, little Bee.
