BYU-H Men's and Women's soccer teams flew to the mainland for two weeks to play a series of games. MK's second game was against Dixie State in St. George, so we headed south.
She wasn't allowed a lot of family time, but we squeezed in some cleat shopping and Cookie Face at the condo with Sam.
Mia doesn't even have a cookie, haha
Warm-ups before the game.
Mia brought Lindsey along for the trip, since game day was also Mia's
16th Birthday!!!
BYU-H won 2-0. MK said, "Wow, I didn't know cleats could be so comfortable! I think they are making me play better!" No more duct tape.
Post-game socializing
I wonder if Rob could possibly be discussing soccer tactics with MK....
MK with Kaitlyn and Kaisa
MK's high school friends— Mason, Kaitlyn, and Sam came down from Alpine to watch her, and the other two girls were MK's Celtic teammates, Kaisa and Meg, who now play for Dixie. Check out the post-game ice packs on Meg :/
Mason's petting MK's ear.
Wow, we miss her. She needed a couple of things, like Dramamine for the long bus rides, swimsuits, and sandals (one pair were stolen on the beach and the other pair's heel straps were completely broken off—those were the ones she had been wearing every day for two months). It did my heart good to be able to mother her a little.
And it did Mia's heart good to hug on her sister for a good, long while...
On the way home, Getty navigated us to some hot pots just off the freeway by Fillmore. We rummaged through our luggage for swimsuits and changed out in the open air. Not even a cow in sight. I don't think I've ever been naked outside before...
The first hot pot was about 100 degrees
The second hot pot was bigger and about 90 degrees.
Thanks, Getty!
