Beautiful fall weather + soccer tournament = a great time for the family!
Here's my beautiful daughter and my wonderful husband doing what they love: hanging out together outside. (In addition to "Bath?" and "Go bye bye?", "
Outside??" is Lucy's favorite request.) This is my Best Shot Monday for this week. Check out other bright shots at
Picture This.
We went to said tournament because it featured one of Dave's students. He's a wicked cool soccer player and just wicked awesome in general (check him out in action
here). Their team won, 5-1. Lucy really enjoyed watching the game; she kept shouting, "Ball!!" as the boys kicked it around. She also loved running around during the game. Dave loved chasing her around, if you know what I mean. It had to happen at some point: Lucy charged right into the field as the game was in action. Dave was exceedingly quick in catching her by the back of her overalls straps and carrying her off, all as a very serious referee came charging down the field to call the action. It was like Dave & Lucy were dodging an oncoming train. But lots of laughter surrounded this event (well, not from the ref), and no one was injured in the making of this humorous memory.
Of course, I would be remiss in leaving out our darling son, who was there in great spirits as well. Here we are sitting along the sidelines, shortly after the event described above.
The tournament was in Decatur, which is the next town away from us. It seemed like a nice enough place. I was hoping to stop in the Old Navy after the game to use a coupon I have (no Old Navy in H-ville, for shame!!), but lunch time and nap time became more important. It was a really fun day for us!
