Tulsa – The End

We played our last game Sunday morning and despite our best efforts, we lost 1-0.  So we ended the tourney 0-1-2 and overall I was very pleased.  Every game was close which means we were evenly matched.  Although, it’s hard to look at the bright side, when you are an ultra competitive 11 year old…we both agree that this weekend was super fun.

So my little Tulsa vacation is over, my bottle of wine is still full because we had minimal downtime, I have a stomach ache from eating out for 3 days, my wallet is recovering from the constant overuse, but I’m still smiling ear to ear because I got the opportunity to spend some one on one time with my Jakers!   This weekend was a blast for me and I’m going to give myself a pat on the back for rocking it getting us everywhere we needed to be on time (if not early), and keeping us right on track.  That’s my OCD kicking in…

We hustled out of town immediately following our game, never stopped, and pulled straight in to catch the end of Drew’s baseball game.  We were hoping to advance to that championship game as well but it wasn’t meant to be.  As we always say, one bad inning really kills you.  Needless to say, I was thrilled to see Drew and my girls!  We figured out that they really are not used to me being gone!  Maybe I should scoot out a little more often as it seems to make them like me a little more!

Here’s a few final shots of Jake in the Tulsa Cup…

IMG_3835He almost got one here!  The goalie took him out hard to the ground which caused a tough hit on the hip and the ball went just barely left of the goal.  The take-down resulted in a penalty in the box and our team missed the PK.  ugh!IMG_3836IMG_3838IMG_3839IMG_3840

Here’s my super boring passenger for the 4 hour trek home!  Thank you Jake for an awesome weekend and for giving it your all.  I will gladly be your date to any future tourneys.  You’re just going to need to step up your game in the ‘entertaining the driver’ department!

And look at this adorable note and art from Reece that greeted me when I arrived home. Love you Reecie Cups and thank you for missing me 😉
