Day 6



The first day of the softball tournament games began today. Alex's team played a team from Livermore, Ca. We were a bit worried about today because we were playing with the minimum number of players due to three players arriving tonight. Well, the girls played awesome! They won 7-1 and Alex caught the entire game... actually, Alex will be catching every game in this tournament. It was about 93 degrees today which made it a bit tougher.

This morning they had practice and Brenna's friend came to the hotel and played with her in the pool. It is a really beautiful pool, huge! Brenna has learned to do flips into the pool so she's pretty proud of herself.

The entire team then headed into downtown Cheyenne. It's near impossible to walk in with 20 people and hope to get seated. Let's just say, the evening didn't go as smoothly as we would have liked and leave it at that.

Now I'm running between the room and the lone washing machine here, cleaning Dan and Alex's uniforms for tomorrow. I should mention that Dan is assistant coaching this tournament. I'll have to ask Alex how she feels about it but it appears she's happy he's in there.

Tomorrow will be a fun day. There is a game at 11:00 a.m., we'll return to the hotel to swim, etc. and then we are all heading out to Terry Bison Ranch for a train ride out to the Bison herd and then back to the ranch for dinner. We're looking forward to it! Especially after tonight's dinner fiasco...

Good night!
