This past weekend was a “travel” weekend. Peyton was asked to play for the other team, but they were all staying at a hotel about 1.5 hours away. Brandon had basketball on Friday, so I picked them up from camp, after walking for 2.5 hours with Alexa, catching up. We met for coffee, then proceeded to walk for 2.5 hours, or 18,000+ steps. We were walking around the middle school track. Saturday morning, we woke up early, by 630 am, to get out of the house by 7 am. We were at my dad’s house by 730 am, and we dropped Brandon off there. We headed to the city for coffee, before crossing the bridge and heading to the tournament city. We stopped at Dick’s to get 20% off. They were offering a coupon for 20% off if you bring a child fully dressed in uniform. We got another cart, and a few supplies before heading to the park. We were one of the earlier teammates to arrive. We had three games to play, 1230, 330 and 5 pm. The first two games were lost, but the last game was won, giving us a 3 (out of 4) seed in our half of the bracket. It was blazing hot, though not as hot as it had been earlier in the summer. She made thank you cards for her coaches on this team along with a pack of seeds which this team seems to go through like water:
We played a team that we’d beaten earlier in the summer in FC.
This tournament, the coaches were giving Peyton signs of how and where to pitch. She was finding her target a lot better this tournament, and mostly giving the coaches what they’d asked for. She was able to let it rip on 0-2 counts, but she did hit one batter, which is what Dave was afraid of when you’re not conservative. But she was able to get the ball inside, outside, and up, along with the right down the middle both fast and slower. She had a fast speed, and then the next pitch, she immediately slowed it down. I’m not sure if she did it on purpose with intent, or it just kind of happened that way. But she got the strikeout!
She made a play at pitcher, and the umpire gave her a coupon for a snack at the snack shack!
This was one of the first tournaments where she got hit. Right in the back.
She later showed me the mark on her back, in the shape of a ball.
After the two losses Saturday, the coach told the girls to get it together for the 3rd game. They were threatening taking swimming away, but the girls battled back. Peyton pitched for two innings, with 3 strike outs. She also hit well
We had a hotel room in SF, but since they’d won, we went to Target to get her a swimsuit and food to take to the team hotel to celebrate. She changed in her friend’s room with my help, and then jumped in with her friends. I still was nervous with so many kids in the pool, so I stayed close by, while Dave was chatting with the dads.

There was a shallow end, and then it got down to 6 feet. She was playing with a friend, who said, “I NEED your help!” She asked what she needed, and she told him, “I need help fighting my brother.” Peyton was happy to help, and she ended up playing with the girl’s older brother! She loses her brother for the week, but ends up with someone else’s!
We had burgers and dogs, and the kids all ate together. We took over the hotel pool and front area. Luckily, the staff didn’t mind. We closed the day down there, brushed her teeth, and then drove back to our own hotel. We showered up and then went to sleep just past 10 pm. We had the 8 am game, so we set the alarm for 530 am.
Dads:
She got up without too much of a problem. SHe didn’t want to eat much; we got her a breakfast sandwich, but she only drank her steamed milk. The Sunday morning game was so close, going into extra innings since it was tied at the end of time. She was only able to pitch two innings if it was done in 1:10, but she could pitch extra and unlimited beyond that. They did an international tiebreaker at the 6th inning, meaning there was a runner put at second. She had a few chances of shutting down the game earlier, but she did pull it out in the end.
She also did it on offensive with the go ahead run being hit in.
We had a long gap until the next game at 2 pm. Dave made his way to the brewery, which wasn’t even open until 11 am. He stood in line by 1015 am ,while I took Peyton to the bookstore for potty and shopping. We browsed and then got two books, one for each kid. We walked back to wait in the sun with Dave. It was hot, but he was happy to get his beer.

We went back to the game, and Peyton had fallen asleep in the car.
She slept for over an hour in the air conditioned car in the parking lot of the park. It was in the high 90’s, and we were trying to keep her cool. She woke up refreshed and joined the team who were trying to keep cool in the shade. The final game wasn’t the best turnout, but they did their best. They lost 5-3, which was so close! Peyton pitched again, but without warm ups as she was napping. I recorded 5 strikeouts in her innings pitched in the quarter final game.
We headed home after that game, and she took another nap (her third for the day). We woke up at Fenton’s, on National Ice cream day! We waited about 20 minutes, less than the beer, for $1.23 black and tans (caramel and chocolate with vanilla and toasted almond ice cream). We told Peyton it was so sweet that she didn’t have to finish it, but that we could bring it back home and she could save it. Half way through or even less, she tapped out and put it back in her cupholder. We did the same with ours.
We made it home, and then we all showered up. She had to get ready for softball camp!
