Saturday I took my Brownies to another outing to celebrate the birthday of the founder of Brownies, Juliette Low. Only 5 girls came this time so it was a much easier group to handle and it was all inside. The girls said they enjoyed the outing, I thought it ran a little long at 3 hours but we got through it.
Then came Sunday. A day that shall live in infamy. Rowan had her final soccer tournament with her U9 Select team. This one was on our home fields in Hatboro. There were 4 teams in the girls division. Rowan's team played the first game and lost 2-0 to a powerhouse team from Hulmeville. They won their next two games 4-0 and 2-0 which gave them enough points to play in the championship game against Hulmeville again. Breaths were held, hands were clenched. And then a player on the opposing team committed a grievous pnealty that gave our team an uncontested penalty kick - she shot and she scored - GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLL! And it was the only score of the game and our little team from one of the smallest soccer clubs in all of Montgomery and Bucks county walked away Champions on their home field! God was it GREAT!
