It was a busy week. We attended the Seattle Storm game and Allison had her first soccer tournament. It was fun to see the Storm again after a year off. We miss Lauren Jackson who is playing with her Australian Olympic team. She plans to return after the Olympics. Allison’s first soccer tournament was this weekend. At this point, all of the feedback about standing around in the sun all weekend to watch your daughter play soccer hit home. We quickly realized that we needed to buy a canopy so we didn’t bake in the sun.
Allison played keeper for one half of the game. This made both Christine and I very nervous as they were playing older girls (7, 8, and 9 year olds). Allison did well despite their opponent’s overwhelming offense.
