Caroline's 1st Soccer Tournament

Today, Caroline and I went to Olive Branch for her 1st ever all-day soccer tournament! Five of Caroline's teammates from her Ole team formed a 3v3 team and entered their 1st tournament. Ella's dad organized the team and helped coach,too! We arrived in Olive Branch to find a beautiful complex. The girls were given pink ribbon to remember Sadie's cousin, who had died. They passed out special wrist bands that said, "TRUST." The day was going well. We played at 10:30 vs their fellow Ole teammates (Lauren, Addie, Addison). We won that game. We moved to our next game at 11:30, then at 1:00. We lost the 1:00 game to a really tough team called The Lightening. We then headed into the semi-finals at 2:00. We had to play our fellow Ole teammates again. Lauren's dad didn't coach this time, Coach Amy coached the team. A few of us didn't think that was fair. They ended up beating us in a really tight game. Caroline only played a little bit because she got a really bad blister. She was upset that she couldn't help her team. Our soccer day ended at 2:30 and we headed to Cameron Brown Park for Griffin's t'ball game. It was a fun day, filled with a fun soccer tournament. Here are some pictures of the girls.
