Tsunami Fall 2013

Taylor played with Tsunami soccer for the 5th season (2 1/2 years).  Her team had a great season this year.  They moved up 2 divisions and played much tougher teams.  They were one goal away from moving up yet another division.  The picture below was after they beat an undefeated team 5 to 2.  WOW!  These girls have such heart.  They amaze me!

One of Taylor's team mate broke her leg during a hard fought win.  It didn't take long before all the girls were at her house wishing her well.  

 Taylor got SO much better this season.  She became faster and stronger.  We are so proud of her on and off the field.  

 The girls needed to win the last game in order to advance to the next bracket.  Well… they didn't win but they did tie.  They were pretty upset after, but it doesn't take long when you are 13 to remember how to have fun again!

 Parents and girls giving a cheer after.

 Taylor and KC are two of the leaders on this team.  They wanted so badly to advance a bracket.  However, at the end of the day win or lose these girls are best friends.  They are all such great girls and we feel blessed to be a part of their lives.  We spend A LOT of time with these girls and their families.  We love their families and consider them some of our greatest friends.  There can tend to be a lot of negative talk about competitive sports.  At our house we are big fans.  Our experience has been fabulous.  We have seen Taylor gain confidence and friendships.  These girls are her best friends and I couldn't love them more!

The purple turtle fixes everything!!  As we finish the fall season in 2013 we know we have lots to look forward too!  What a great season!  We are excited to see what the future holds for these incredible girls!!
