texans on the autobahn: December 2006

Joe wanted to be Superman for Halloween. .. .I'm thinking this might be one of his last years for trick or treating, but he missed out on it for 2 years in Germany!

The next time that Joe plays in a tournament I plan to count how many headers he takes. I began to worry towards the end of the tournament when I must have counted a dozen headers he took in a single game! The player behind Joe in this photo is huge, but the Texans shut him down and kept him for scoring.

there it goes. . .

Joe's got him. . .

This tournament invites only the top teams in the nation so the competition is quite fierce. The Texans scored only 3 goals in the entire tournament and allowed only 1. In the end, the Texans were defeated in the semi final game by Solar, another Texas team.

This is the location of all the tournament games. . it was a spectacular facility with soccer pitches, baseball diamonds, an stadium for basketball, plus more. The weather was perfect for the tournament too.

Joe waits in line for the safari ride.

With the bug eyed glasses and the braces, Joe looks a bit different, don't you think?

Caitlin drives a jeep in the safarai adventure at Disney's Animal Kingdom.

We were so excited to ride Caitlin's truck at Animal Kingdom. She has the funniest little Disney voice when she is working. . .we tried to crack her up with crazy questions while on the safari but she never got away from her script in her little Disney voice! Tons of fun!
