GA Winter Showcase in California!


We decided to take a road trip to southern CA for Alyssa's Winter Showcase for the Girls Academy 23-24 season opener. I was so glad we did because Austin decided to travel with us last minute. Everything is more fun when Austin or more of our children come so we were thankful for him!

As Alyssa was warming up for the 1st game of the season, she felt her knee pop while trying to pass around one of the coaches. The next thing we knew, she was on the ground with her teammates encircling her. She only played about 15 minutes in the first half and it was obvious she was in significant pain. We stayed another day before leaving early back to Utah for a MRI.

Before leaving back to Utah, we spent an afternoon and early evening with cousin Jimmy, Renae, Spencer and his little family. We shopped, ate a the Shake Shack, visited at the hotel for a few hours, and ended up at King Fish for an incredible halibut dinner. Austin and Dave were able to try oysters while I stayed with shrimp and other yumminess! We love our cousins! It was so awesome to spend time with them while in CA. 

We left Ontario, CA at 4:30am thanks to Dave's ability to arise without an alarm on vacation which put us outside of Las Vegas at 7:00am for a sunrise and opportunity to visit the 7 Magic Mountains of Las Vegas all by ourselves! The rocks were so cool, bright, and colorful. It was awesome to walk there and take a few pictures and videos.
