Taylor had her final tournament with her club team Chaos this weekend. It was bittersweet, the girls had a great weekend together but some are sad to have the team split up. They are close enough that there friendships will remain and some will end up on the same club teams together. We have made some good friendships with parents as well and with all the girls moving on we will see most of them too.
It rained Saturday night and that was great to see... the refreshing smell of the pines and the briskness in the air. Lucky for us the team was done just in time before the rain started so we got to enjoy it on the patio of the hotel.

Big League Dreams...
Taylor had a tournament in Gilbert at Big League Dreams. This is a really cool complex. It has 8 fields and each field is a replica of a Major League Baseball Field. It even looks like there are people in the outfield stands. Now the tournament itself was hotter then hell. I cannot believe they have tournaments in this heat. The team made it to the semi finals and lost after going into international rules.

Camping trip over Fourth of July
We headed up north to Hutch Mountain on Wednesday morning. We have been going to this area for years. The girls like the area and they love to ride the ranger around. The weather was great, it rained most of the day Thursday but not ever a down pour... a nice light rain. We played lots of cards, dominoes and ate and ate and ate. Its either camping or the cool weather thats makes you hungry all day :) Our friends the Sterns showed up Thursday late afternoon. Tad and I learned a new card game called Yuker (sp). Then Friday morning our friends the Bauers showed up, they came for the one night. They brought their ranger so all 9 girls rode around most of the day between the two rangers.... well until Mr. Game and Fish came along and spoiled there fun. We don't have some tag you have to have on off road vehicles so the ranger was parked the rest of the time :(
It didn't bother the girls too much... there is always something to do camping. We got home late last night and today its clean up time and laundry, laundry and more laundry... YUK :=(
