Welcome to 2011 Tournament Season

Last weekend was our first SCAGA tournament and the Spring Meeting for the PGA. A very busy work week for us at the Williams' household. Thursday morning we packed up the excursion and trailer and headed South for 5 days!

Here is a picture from the ride down. Passed Out. Love that we have such a great traveling kiddo! BTW....This was St. Patty's Day...decked out in green!

We were able to spend a bunch of time with our friends the Hanlon's. They have 3 adorable kiddos, 2 of which are girls and get along perfectly with our little girl! Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of the girls playing (don't know what I was thinking). You'll have to take my word for it, they had so much fun!

Thursday afternoon after we dropped Matt off at the golf course to work, Cam and I went back to the Hotel. We had 2 special visitors.... my Aunt Arlene and Uncle Gordon. They were driving through and wanted to stop and see us, and give Cami her early birthday present.

Friday we were able to meet up with my Graduate Studies Major Professor and his wife. Cami and I were able to go to my old department and see the changes made and see old faces. We then had lunch with the Del Campo's. They of course spoiled Cami with a bag full of toys! It was so nice to reconnect.

Saturday was a long day! First day of any event is alway extra long. One of the things I am typically responsible for (besides keeping Cami out of trouble) is registration. We arrived at the golf course about 6:40am, which if you know our daughter is well before her typical wake up time. Cami and I did registration, of course she was a charmer and shook players hands and told them 'see you later'. After registration we had a beautiful memorial for a member of the association who passed away unexpectedly earlier this year. It was difficult for us all, but a beautiful way to remember Barry.

This picture is from after we left the golf course Saturday morning and went down to the outlet mall to do a little shopping. One tuckered our SCAGA volunteer.

Sunday was the second day of the event. We were around in the afternoon to see the finish and help with take down and clean up. Earlier that day we were able to have brunch with my sister Karen and her Husband Mike. She is going to be working in Denver for the next 8 months, so it was nice to be able to catch up with her while we were in Las Cruces.

Being in a hotel is always interesting with a toddler. It's a little hard for her to settle down and go to sleep some nights, but most of the time she has been going on all cylinders all day with little nap and she just sacks out.
Monday, Cami and I packed up the excursion and checked out of the Hotel. Matt had an all day meeting at NMSU for the PGA section. We hit the road later that evening.

Pheww....One down and ???? to go :)

Another successful event
