STEAMBOAT SPRINGS!
Well, we are here at it is absolutely gorgeous! It took us a full day to get acclimated to the altitude but we all seem to be doing good now.
We played our first game yesterday afternoon and had a narrow loss of 9-8. Trevor had a fantastic game and 2 exceptional hits. One walk and scored twice. The team needs to get used to the altitude and the way it affects the balls when it is hit. They are not sure how far it will actually carry and that will just take some practice. We have a double header today with our first game starting at 3:15 and game #2 starting at 5:15.
I will update on how we played tonight after we get home, may be tomorrow morning when I get the chance.
Opening ceremonies were so awesome last night. They introduced each team, this week there are 42 teams age 11 and 38 teams age 13, (wow, those kids are huge!). They all walked around the arena,(rodeo) we said the pledge of allegiance and had picture op’s. Then MORE pin trading. The kids are having a blast collecting and trading team pins. Even Drew is involved. Trevor was fighting a migraine during the festivities but was a trooper and managed to pull through it fine with Tylenol and caffeine.
Today I am planning on taking the boys to breakfast and doing some exploring in town.
May you all have a great day and I will keep you all posted!
All my love-
Dawn and Crew
