Good 'ol Days

A few weekends ago I went to Abilene for a 7 on 7 soccer tournament.  Every year the HSU girls team has this tournament as a fundraiser and a chance for the girls to play soccer.  That evening after the tournament is over, they have their ring ceremony.  Because of course, they win conference every year and get rings :)
Anyways, this year there was an alumni team in the tournament and Becca and I decided to go play.  I am sad to admit that we were the oldest girls there.  Luckily, we had enough alumni to do 5 minute rotations!  I never got too tired, but got to play enough to make the trip worth it.  We won our first game, tied the second and lost our last 2 by one goal each.  Not too bad for a bunch of out of shape girls! 
I had such a good time seeing so many of the girls I used to play with and catching up with them.  It's crazy, but most of us live in the Metroplex, yet we have to drive to Abilene to see each other.  Oh well, it was a good time.  And I even scored a goal in one of our games! 
Here is a pic of the alumni team - appropriately named Too Legit To Quit - and a pic of all of the current players with the alumni. 

Other than getting to play soccer and seeing old friends, I was so excited to eat and see some family!  As crazy as it might sound, I miss Abilene sometimes.  I was really looking forward to eating at some of the places we used to eat at all the time.  While we weren't able to make it to all of them, we did have Little Panda (chinese food) for lunch after the tournament and La Popular for breakfast burritos on Sunday morning.  We also had dinner with my aunt and uncle and cousins who took such good care of us all in college.  I was a happy girl :)
And of course, I got to spend the weekend with my bestie and her family.  Thats where I met her and her parents.  Such good memories!  We also got to introduce my favorite little boy, Carson, to some of our favorite things! 
Here's until our next trip to Good 'ol Abilene :)
