Mesquite Trip part 1 March Madness Tournament

We won the first game against The Havoc. Then we were ahead 9-1 in the second game against the Rockhounds and they came back and beat us by one. Heartbreaker! Utah RedHawks in their new uniforms. Top left coaches Aaron & Billy, Wyatt, Hudson, Cooper, Alex, Kaydon, Cade, coach Larry; Bottom left, Noah, Scott, Andrew, Drew & Stockton
Tierra was sitting on our blanket and while the other team was warming up in the outfield a ball came over and bounced on the grass right in front of her, she looked up and it popped her in the mouth. It was bleeding pretty bad and turned purple. These pictures don't even do it justice. Her bottom lip was HUGE. This was taken right after, but they got bigger as time went on. People kept commenting that she didn't need Botox now...well she never did in the first place...she has always had very full lips. She put ice on it the rest of the day and took IBprofen to ease the swelling. She couldn't eat solid foods for a day and couldn't smile at all. She was miserable! Funny thing is she has always been afraid of balls in any sport and she always seems to get hit by them, adding to her fear.
Hudson heading home with directions from third base coach...dad Hud with another hit.

Little pep talk Randy, Kaydon and Hudson

Soaking up some sun at our pool and hottubHudson pitching, second day, game 4. He did really well, especially under pressure...he doesn't choke. The statistics show Hud tied as the third best on base percentage hitter during the tournament. We got killed in the first game against the Long Horns. They ended up winning the whole tournament so it was a little easier to swallow. The last game we again lost by one. All 3 teams that beat us advanced to the quarter finals out of 17 teams! We had a hard group to play against! Sam and Scott came to swim with our kids after the games.

Poor Tierra! Those things are HUGE! People pay big buck for lips like those. All in all it looks like it was a fun weekend - except for Tierra.

By the way, like your new look!

Tierra, I am sorry for your pain. I am jealous that you can still look so absolutely beautiful even with a painful injury like that.

Dang T, no more bee sting lip gloss for you. That looks really uncomfortable. Good job to Hud!

What a fun trip!! Poor Tierra!!! That is so sad- but I'm with the other commments, she still looks absolutely adorable- not many people could have lips that big and still look so dang cute!! So fun!! And I love your new background!! And also get on Rylees FB and check out the pictures from when the girls were little- you will laugh so hard. She put a bunch of the ones when the girls used to have their "club"- there is a lot of Tierra!!!!!

Looked like a fun trip Angela. I love how you get all dressed up for all these games. You're one cool mom and wife! Wow! Tierra's lips! Some people pay big bucks for those. Seriously though, I feel so bad for her. I've never liked softball/baseball much either for the same reason she does. I'm scared of that hard stupid ball! I've never been hit like that though. Poor girl.
