Allison was invited to play with an older team in the Davis Legacy Showcase up in Davis/Sacramento this weekend. Unfortunately, we were in Kansas, but this was a big honor so we wanted to make it happen for her. Her team manager was able to drive her up and then she stayed the weekend with Olivia's family.
I got a few picture updates through Snapchat
and some team photos during some down time at the Capitol building.
Allison also got a special visit from Papa on Saturday and Monday. A big thank you to him for making the drive up! Sadly, she didn't get much playing time and we aren't sure why, but the experience was a good one. The team lost their first game, but rallied back to win the other 2 bracket games. They advanced to the semi-finals, which they won 5-0 and then to the championship.
It was a tough loss in the 11th round of penalty kicks and a LONG drive home, but they left with some fun memories and strong soccer. I was proud of Allison for putting herself out there and staying positive under the circumstances!
