March Madness/Sunshine Tourneys St. George 2009

St.George here we come!!!   Actually this picture was taken on the ride home.  We left for the March Madness Tourney on March 18 at 9:30 pm.  After Jantsen's basketball game (they won).  Payton rode down with Kesters earlier that day.
Thursday Mar. 19.  At Jantsen's first game against the "Highlanders" (we won 7 to 6).  Brooks hooked up with his "girlfriends".   Avery Boyer.
Avery and Cashlyn Chruma.    Brooks told Payton  he should have lots of girlfriends like he does.
Just too cute!!
Nick, Dylan Boyer and Tate Dayton watching the first of 10 games!!
We were 10 minutes late to Payton's first game and missed his homerun over the center field fence.   His team (Utah Trojans)  won their first game against the Utah Stixx.
However, they lost their next three games...
Payton did great pitching and playing shortstop and third base.
Poor Jantsen ended up getting really sick with strep.  He could only play half of his second game (which they won).  Thanks to Uncle Jeff, we purchased an antibiotic and doped him up!  He missed the third game against the Storm (we lost) but managed to play the fourth.  He had a great hit to left field and played catcher, however, we lost this game too.
Watching Payton's second game.  Jantsen is asleep in the blankets.
Brooks had a blast playing with Travis Hartman.
Thanks to Jane, we stayed in the Petersen's  Green Valley Condo.  Nick and Brooks couldn't wait to swim in the pools!
Relaxing in the hot tub...
Nice jump, Nick!  This pool had freezing cold water.   That didn't stop Nick!!
Swimming at the bigger and warmer pools.
Saturday Jantsen really started to feel better and spent the day at Fiesta Fun riding go-carts, playing miniature golf, and playing in the arcade with his buddies from his team (HC Hurricanes)  This picture was taken at the High School game.  Hunter and Kaleb Peterson, Scott Averett and Jantsen.
Cheering on the Red Devils.
Just can't stop texting!!
Grandma and Grandpa Thorpe came down to support the ball players.
Lots of Springville Red Devil fans watching the game in Center field.   We had lots of fun!!  The weather was great!
