Go Kaitlyn!!!

Kaitlyn had a soccer tournament today. Last Saturday her team finished the season in a tied game with the second place team. They ended the season in first place. Then came the tournament. Because we were in first place, they played their first game at 11:00 today. We bundled up and headed to the field. They won that game and had an hour to rest before the final game. The final game started with her team playing the second place team.... the team we had already beat once before then tied... who are also the team they practiced with every Monday night.

It was a long game with our team scoring in the first quarter. They went through to the fourth quarter of keeping the other team from scoring, when they scored. This tied the game with not enough time in the game to score again. Our kids were already tired... the other team had played for two hours straight at this time. We began overtime of 5 minute quarters. Neither team scored in the first two overtimes.... then in the third overtime, the other team scored. Kaitlyn's team did not have enough time to score. This ended the soccer season.

It was a wild game!!! The parents were just as excited as the kids were about the game. I now haev a sore throat from all the yelling and my legs hurt from standing and jumping. I hae pictures but have to wait until we get them developed since they are on the 35mm camera.

I am so proud of my daughter... she went after the ball today and did such a great job. Before this game she was saying she didn't want to play again, but once the game was over, she was saying she wanted to play again. Now to wait for the next season.
