Soccer Saturday and Sunday


013, originally uploaded by megan bauer.

We lived at the sports center this weekend. Owen played in three tournaments and we went to a PASL game. Oh, and tomorrow Owen is going to soccer camp. Saturday, Owen played in two soccer tournaments. And, took first place in both of them. One of them (this photo) was a "house" team. Just a group of kids thrown together by the coach of his "house" team. First place in co-ed under 9. The picture below is his CNY United team. First place in boys under 9. Owen played soccer on Saturday for 4 straight hours. Literally. The tournament played 25 minute games. He played w/ the boys team at 7,8,9, and 10 and the co-ed team at 730, 830, 930, and 1030. Crazy! No breaks in between. He had to leave one of the games to go to the bathroom. And, he doesn't ever get tired. It's amazing. In addition, that evening we went to the PASL game, and he didn't get home and into bed until 11 pm. Then, we had to wake him at 715 AM for Sunday's soccer tournament. Sunday's tournament didn't go as well. They had them in a U10/U11 league and they got squished. 7 and 8 year old boys can't compete w/ select team 11 year olds. Doesn't happen. Anyway, he still wasn't tired or sick of soccer. He didn't fall asleep until 830 PM tonight and he's going back to the soccer center tomorrow AM for a soccer camp.

WOW! If this time of the year wasn't busy enough.... but without family around, it's probably a blessing to keep everyone happy and tired. HA!
