Park City Avalanche Soccer Tournament with Alyssa

 We arrived back from participating in the Manti Pageant at 1:30am, went to sleep, and were on the road again at 6:00am for an 8:00am soccer game in Park City.  Alyssa was a rockstar and handled it all like a pro!  The girls played hard and won the 8:00am game and then played again at 11:00am and won that game too!  We went out to eat at Kneaders and then headed back to our condo at the Westgate Resort for a nap and swimming!  Later that evening, we went out for a salad and chicken, decided we were tired, and went back to the condo to turn in early.

As Alyssa was dosing off at 8:30pm, she told me her stomach hurt.  I didn't think too much of it because she is always complaining of a stomach ache.  At 11:00pm, she work me up to tell me she needed to throw up.  And then she threw up every 30-60 minutes throughout the night!  At 7:00am, I knew she was too sick to play the rest of the tournament so I contacted the coach to let him know.  Coach Devin couldn't have been nicer (and more worried) about Alyssa.  We waited until 11:00am and she was still violently throwing up, but we made a quick dash to the Yukon and headed home!  

The Celtic Soccer team ended up with a heartbreaking loss in the championship game, losing by 1 in a shootout.  Many of the parents expressed to Coach Devin that had Alyssa been there, they felt they would have won the game.  So sweet!  Next time!
