Thing 2 and Football

This past weekend Thing 2's football team played in the Fall Cup here at the National Sports Complex.  It was a grueling weekend for her.  Friday night was lock in for youth group.  They stayed up all night, went cardboard sledding, stargazed and watched movies.  Early Saturday morning we picked her up in all her weariness and took her home where she promptly fell asleep for the next 3 hours.  Then it was off to her match.  Her team had won their first match 4-nil and the second they drew, 0-0.  Sunday's game was victorious which landed their squad in the BIG stadium for the finals.  Woo hoo!  What an experience for these girls.  They played their hearts out and won the championship game, 3-1.  It has been pure joy to watch Thing 2 develop this year with a new coach, new team and new aspirations.  This tournament completed their fall season.  The team will continue training through the winter and then compete again in the Spring.  We are looking forward to it! 

That's our girl!
