It's been a while since I've posted, but I really do have a good excuse. I haven't been home on the weekends for the past month basically. Alexxa has had tournament after tournament so my blog has suffered. In the past month we have gone to Las Vegas, Redwood City and Anaheim. Last weekend I left for Anaheim after work on Friday (we actually left El Dorado Hills at 6 PM and rolled in to our hotel at 2 AM). Saturday morning we woke up at 8, Lexx played games at 10 AM and 4 PM, wen't to the team dinner and got back to the hotel at 10 PM. Sunday we woke up at 6 AM, Lexx played at 8 AM and 2 PM, and then we were back on the road by 4 PM. We actually arrived back home at 11:30 PM, and both Lexx and I had to be back up and ready for the week by 6 AM. What a loooooooooong weekend!

Alexxa's team did well and actually won the Anaheim tournament. They did manage to lose 3 girls for the weekend in the process. Geneve rolled her ankle within the first minute of the first game, Alyssa fell and a girl stepped on her arm which we thought was broken, and CJ fell on her collar bone (the same side she had broken earlier in the season). Stephanie did something to her knee during her high school game, and it's looking like she is probably out for the rest of this season, and Amy suffers from ongoing ankle and back problems. Talk about the walking wounded! So the picture above is of Alexxa's team, minus Gabby (Lexx is the girl standing next to the coach, and yes she is taller than him). The picture was taken immediately after they won the playoff game and about half the team needed to hurry and leave to take flights back home. It was an interesting weekend and Lexx and I had a good time, but if we have to do that again...we're going to take a few extra days off and go to Disneyland!
