Cali’s team signed up for a tournament in Las Vegas so here we go!

We drove down on Friday – left around 11am. It ended up being an at home learning day because EVERYONE has been out with Covid! We brought Anna with us. We ate lunch – uncrustables in the car and then were ready for dinner when we got there.

We had to leave Benji home to go to his Adams Family Rehearsals all weekend and we had to leave Packer home to go his wrestling tournament. So weird not to have them with us!

We checked in to our hotel – Hampton Inn – Summerlin – (small rooms, no pool :)) And then we met up with the Falabellas at Jersey Mikes for dinner. Then the girls had their first game that night at 8:00.

And they played again Saturday morning at 9am. Ben and I left the kids at the hotel watching movies during the morning game! Cali didn’t get to start but she came off the bench each half and would play the rest of the half. She is working on being aggressive -first to the ball and use her body to shield. They lost both games. Coach was mad – said they need to talk more.

We went back and got the kids and then out to PIZZA at GIORDANO’s. It was a LONG wait. But Delicious.

Then we got everyone to go DOWNTOWN to the M and M store! We wandered the store and the Coca Cola Store and the ROSS. The feather girls with no shirts on were pretty gross but otherwise we had a good time.

the coca cola store: Millie wanted to ride the elevator SO BAD!

We rested up for a minute and then headed out for Cali’s 7:00 soccer game that night. They played so well. They were pumped up. They were fast to the ball and teh team was more their skill level – – and they SCORED a goal! Ended up tying 1-1.

Dinner Time at In and Out with family and a few teammates. Rose had some fun with the stickers! We headed back to the hotel and fell asleep to a movie. I went to bed early each night!

We didn’t make it to the final Monday round of games but we HAD to pay for the hotel through Sunday so we spent Sunday in Vegas. We watched church on Zoom and we face timed Benji and Packer to do our come follow me. That afternoon we met up with the cousins at a park and hung out there most of the day.

We ate sandwiches at the hotel for dinner and then chilled. The kids got together and made a music video to We Don’t Talk About Bruno – Encanto. We got up earlyish Monday morning and came home. It was Martin Luther King Day so no school. We stopped and got Craigo’s breadsticks on the drive home. Ben worked from the car.

Benji and Packer did good without us. They took good care of each other and of the dog. Amanda had them over for sunday dinner so they loved that.
