Vegas Tournament


Over the three day weekend Tanner had a baseball tournament in Vegas. I didn't go down for obvious reasons, but he and Landon went down for the games Saturday and then back for the games on Monday. He opted out and didn't play in the Sunday games. I'll have to admit I literally cried both times they left because I was worried something would happen while they were out of time and I would end up in the delivery room without Landon. Tanner's team did really well. They made it to the Silver Medal Championship and ended with a 3-3 record. The best thing is that they beat a St. George team that has been a thorn in our sides for a long time. Tanner made some good plays and played 2nd or left the whole time-no errors. He hit good and only struck out a few times. The only thing is that luck wasn't on his side as even though he was hitting he never made it to base cause someone was always right there to snag his hit and get him out. I guess I shouldn't say he never made it to base, he did get on base once and even made it home when they had to sub him in for a kid on second who had to go pee-ha ha.
Another cool thing is that they got to play several of their games on the field of dreams, which is a facility with  about 8 ball fields each patterned after a major league ball field. Here is a picture of Tanner playing in front of the green monster, which for those of you who don't know is the green wall at RedSox Stadium.
Getting their trophies at the championship game...


Well that's the scoop for now. There is another ball tournament in St. George this weekend as well as Chloe and Tanner both having basketball games this week, so it should be a fun filled week. I think we will be super busy with at least a few events per night-wish us luck ;) and who knows we might throw having a baby into the mix, as it seems I have contractions anytime I am up for long at all.

You forgot to mention Andre Agassi is in the background of these pictures. He and his wife Steffi Graf were there watching their boy play.
