Washington) and Marianne Schiess Dalling to play with us in a couple games
on Friday vs. Snow College and Northwest College in Powell, Wyoming. Jill
Adams and Cady Williams along with Libbie Loughmiller Oram and Kelly Coombs
Grossman from Billings also joined us. We lost to Snow by 3 and beat
Northwest Wyoming by 8 points. It was so fun to see Cady and Jill. Cady
couldn't make it for our first game against Snow or I know the outcome would
have been different. (Cady had 32 points in the game she made it to.) Refs
were pretty poor for the Northwest game on both sides. The Northwest coach
said they were the worst she's ever had. It was ROUGH. Jill got a black
eye and I ended up getting tackled with about 10 seconds left in the game.
My jaw is still out of alignment, but it's getting better so I don't plan to
go to the dentist.
As for our travel plans, we left Thursday night and stayed in Bozeman and
then drove Friday morning. There was a semi-truck wreck outside of Powell
that almost caused us to miss the game, but thanks to some "desperation in
action" (Jen and I going car to car to see if anyone on the other side of
the wreck would turn around and take us to Powell) AND the emergency workers
who finally let us go through and then helped sandbag and push us back onto
the road when we started to slide off, we made it to the game on time! It
was quite the adventure. Jen's favorite line from the trip was mine when I
said "Go get the nurses!" (The two BYU-I nursing students) and mine was
Jen's when she said after we slid off the road, "Well, at least the two
truck will have to pull us out first."
G-Ro watched the kids so I could have my adventure. Ty took his boys to
Utah where they went 1-1 vs. Syracuse and Clearfield and then went to the
BYU v. Hawaii game in SLC at Energy Solutions Arena.
We had a couple from our ward over for dinner today because mom left us a
roast and we had plenty of food to share. Scott and Desiree Wheeler and
they have two little kids Cole and Alicia. Cole is 3 and must have a lot in
common with Shay because when they were down playing he climbed up on the
bunk bed with Kysa and then chucked his sippy cup down at Raleigh who was
playing a computer game. The sippy cup bonked Raleigh on the head and then
spilled all over the floor and Raleigh bedspread. Raleigh came up bawling.
Of course Cole's parents felt bad but it was pretty funny. I think Ty said
he home teaches Scott now. So yay, December should be done. :)
Re-Living the Dream Part 1 was my basketball trip to Snow College a few
weeks ago. If I ever get a copy of the team picture we took I'll post it on
the blog. Different team, but it was fun.
