Ballapalooza 2010

For the past 9 summers, our family has made the journey to Bellingham for the Ballapalooza soccer tournament.  This past weekend we made our 10th appearance in the tournament.  The team’s core is family (this year we had 9 cousins), and then we fill in the roster with some of our soccer friends from our other teams.  It’s been a great family tradition for us.  We’ve come very close to winning the tournament a couple times…but we’ve never been able to seal the deal.  Unfortunately, this year didn’t go so well…actually it was probably one of our worst showings.  We’ll just chalk it up to a fun weekend with the family.  Maria had a great time visiting with her cousins…and she even told me it was exciting to watch our games.  That’s my girl!!!
