Cinco de Mayo Tournament 2009

Nathan played in the Cinco de Mayo Tournament again this year. It was so much fun to have a little man to get to take to the field to watch his Dad play. We got Waylon dressed in his best soccer gear to show him off to all of Nathan's fellow players. Nathan did an amazing job again this year. It is so wild how he can go a year with out playing with these guys and come out and be the best player on the field, and no I am not bias.... The team played 5 games in 24 hours, they won all of them and made it to the final game. The final game was very close but they were very worn out so they took 2nd place with pride. It was very hot, in the upper 90s all weekend, I got a bad sunburn and Waylon stayed cool in the car with MeeMee. We are so thankful to have Mee Mee there to take care of Waylon. One of Nathan's teammates told her she was not watching the game and she said she has been able to watch 30 years of soccer now she is just enjoying getting to watch Waylon. We stayed the night at her house while she and Granddaddy watched Waylon so we could go to a players party. They said they were a little disappointed he did not wake up after we left to play with them....
I am so thankful to have a husband that is still in such great shape to go out and be so successful in a big soccer tournament. Waylon was very impressed with his Dad as well. We are glad that Dad only got a yellow card and not a Red card... he is improving....We are and will always be his biggest fans! Hopefully Nathan will still be playing in 18 years and I can cheer both my boys on!
