Memorial Day Weekend


014, originally uploaded by megan bauer.

We spent our Memorial Day Weekend in Philadelphia, PA for a soccer tournament. One great advantage to being on the East Coast is that a quick drive leads you to a handful of big cities. So, a quick 4 hour drive - and we're in Philadelphia.

My dad flew in on Thursday to go with us! We haven't seen him since Christmas, and he has yet to see Owen play (and he's never been to Philadelphia), so it was super nice.

We went to the FC Delco soccer tournament, a huge soccer tourney (Nike sponsored) that turns down 100's of team who apply to get in each year. Really, really good competition. This was the first time our boys would face another U9 team (they always play U10 and U11), and they did really, really well. They won their first 2 games, and then lost their third (1-0). In semi finals, they also lost 1-0! They ended up finishing 3rd and the two teams that played for the championship we're the two teams that they lost to 1-0. So, so close!

Don't you love this picture? Henry loves to pretend that he's a dog these days - hence, biting one of his fave players!
