Soccer Tournament August 2009
We won the tournament!
Four teams each played 3 games. Our school's team played in the first game, beating the host team 2-1. Both our goals were from penalty kicks.
Our next game was at around 1:00 PM. Unfortunately, we lost that game 0-1.
Our third game, the final game of the tournament, started around 3:30 PM. The game ended tied at 0-0, so we had a penalty kick shootout. We won that 4-3. Very exciting, as it came down to the final shot of the shootout That game's win earned our team 1st place for the tournament.
Bennett played pretty well, getting some play time in each game.
The weather was very un-summerlike. Throughout the morning and part of the afternoon, it was mostly overcast, chilly, and damp, with occasional breezes. Midafternoon the sun came out and the clouds cleared.
Below is a slideshow of pictures I took. A large majority of the pictures feature Bennett. He is player #4. For those pictures of the penalty shootout, our goalie is the one wearing green shorts.

Chubby, the Silent Watcher
Chubby is our grey cat. Here's a picture of how he spent about 30 minutes of his time this morning (7/01/09), sitting very still the whole time.
And here's what he was watching, from his perspective.
The red & glass thing in the middle is a hummingbird feeder. There's nothing at it.
