My First Soccer Game

Today, I shot my first soccer game, ever. Of course, it wasn't the first soccer game I had ever been to. I think I've been to one, maybe two others. :)

Before I show you shots of that, though, let me give you this --



mm, mmmmm, mmmmmmmmmm. Looking at that while eating chocolate ice cream. It is almost more than I can handle. almost.



Okay, I'll tear myself away from the screen and give you some highlights --

First, the little brother who is just so enthusiastic about the whole day


He looks a little like his dad, anyway, but put matching sunglasses on him, and it gets scary.


Just to compare


And now, the game --

The Concentration


She Runs.


She Kicks.


She Scores!!! (She really did score. 1 of 3 helping to soundly defeat the other team 3 - 0; not that I was keeping score, or anything.


Look at the sheer pain and/or terror she invokes on the field.


And finally. This is not our star, but I thought it was a cool shot. :P

  2. Scary as in uncanny, not scary as in frightening. :)

  4. Bernard is cute.

    Michael is adorable. Even if he does look like his daddy.

  7. My question is how do you shoot a soccer game? did you blow that thing to bits? What type of ammo did you use? Were there any pieces left?

  8. Steve - Y'all have apparently missed THIS part of Karma's life...

    She shoots cameras much more than I shoot guns.

  10. Good recovery Bernard. Ain't it a bummer having a wife who comments constantly on your blog? She knows what you say. And you can't say anything bad about her.

  11. That's easy -- there IS nothing bad to say, about me.
