Denmark

Arriving in Saudi we were unsure whether or not there would be any soccer for the girls to participate in. We soon learned of a team called "Desert Wind" that traveled to Denmark once a year to participate in a world wide tournament. I have to give all credit to Tim as far as getting the ball rolling and signing the girls up  (I still had my head in the clouds with moving here).  The team is coached by a expat that has been here close to 15 years. He trains the girls and prepares them for this tournament.  Tim and Laken went along to cheer Allie and Ashlyn on.  This was an experience that they will long remember and talk about.  

 Ashlyn is the youngest member of the team but works hard to earn her spot. 

 For those of you that think Allie is always gentle and soft spoken... this is for you :)

 The best thing that came from this trip is this! They learned to stick together, take care of one another and cheer each other on.

In the end the girls team made it to the semi-finals and lost. They were competing with teams from all over the world but the Norwegian teams were the most difficult rivals.
