1-1 in new mexico and texas

so we had a long travel weekend this past one which we first traveled to New Mexico to play the Lobos...we won that game 1-0 not playing super well but getting the result on the road at a place where they like to pack the player in in front of their net.  We then traveled to Dallas Ft. Worth to play TCU and we lost.  Disappointing for sure! We did not play very well and had a hard time establishing offense.  I guess we just have to put it behind us and get ready for our last two games of conference!  

new mexico water

SO we got to new mexico tonight and went to dinner...we came back to the hotel and my roomie hannah said she was going to take a shower...next thing i know she is yelling "dudley the water is coming out brown" haha...so great water comes out of the faucet here!! lol...I guess because Mexico is attached to the new the water is brown? it eventually became clear after about 20 seconds but thats still not so good!!

BIrthday fun!

So 1st want to say that I have awesome roommates!! They made me wake up and go out to breakfast at eggs in the city and it was delicious...I then had practice which was alright...then the real fun started...I went back to my dorm showered and Lane my best friend came up from provo.  We all went out to dinner at texas road house.  A girl on my team Addie works there so she gives us a discount.  Me Lane Porter Hannah Kmart La la and Morgan all went and ate there and my roommates refuesed to let me pay yet again on my birthday!  We drove back up to Salt Lake and went to Corbin and Reggies house for a good jam session of rock band!  We played for a while then began our hunt for a hot tub.  It took three hotels and failures till we finally snuck into the marriot and found success!!  It was a lot of fun and I had an awesome birthday!!! here are some pics from dinner and of the boys in the back of the truck freezing thier hinies off...ALSO me on the saddle at Texas roadhouse cause its my birthday! haha

BIrthday!

I got some pancakes with strawberries and whip cream in memory of my birthdays at home!! excited for the rest of the day! and I really don't feel that much older...haha....do we ever really feel older on our birthdays?

SNOW!!

snow in october??? I guess its my birthday present...waking up to a white winter wonderland...

GREAT weekend of SOCCER!!

So we had two tough conference opponents this weekend and we were a little drawn back after a devastating embarasing loss to BYU...but we bounced back thats for sure and our seniors (PEDO and KATY) really stepped up!!  We won both games this weekend against San Diego State University 4-1 and UNLV 3-1.  It felt great to finally score more than two goals in a game and we really played well this weekend!! We kept the ball and had some great goals!!  Katy Reineke scored 2 goals against san diego and one bullet shot against unlv to finish off the game!! She played flipping awesome and I'm so happy for her getting those goals this weekend!! LA our sophmore forward that runs her butt off everygame scored her first goal of the season today as well!! Happy to see her finally get one!! 

It was snowing earlier today and it sure had me a little scared for winter...its the second week in october and already snowing?? :( luckily it stopped by game time, although it was still a cold bit of a windy game here in SALt Lake today!!

GOOD TO FINALLY GET SOME GOOD WINS!! gotta keep this going for conference!! 2-1

Pilates

So our coaches decided to give us one more thing to do each week...PILATES class every monday before our practice.  Let me tell you...its hard! Our teacher is probably a little frustrated with our inflexible class of soccer players who start laughing at half the things she tries to get us to do.  I'm hoping that the class helps me get more flexible and maybe a little stronger in my core...I'm sore from it so i guess that means its working right??

bounce back...

so we had a tough night last night.  Of course it rained all day for our byu game...it was 80 degrees the rest of the week but as soon as we are going to play byu its showers right. Anyway it was a cold night and we didn't come out ready to play...byu is a good team and punished us for it!!  I almost got a header...dang...i would have had my car up here...well we just have to bounce back as a team and get ready for the next two home games this weekend! we need two wins for sure!  we are 0-1 in conference now... :(

UTAH vs. byu GAME!!

I am so EXCITED for our GAME on Saturday against byu...its going to be so much fun!!
