Jenna was invited to play on the Alaska Lady Hoops team to compete in tournaments around the country. ( She may only go to this one)She is in Phoenix this week-end and is going to get to visit with Kathleen and Brian and kids. She and the teams left Ak last night. I was so worried as she ( who is only 14) had to fly to Anchorage by herself and wait there for 6 hours for her flight out to PHX. She had to leave on a different airline than she arrived on so it was an issue of getting to the right airlines. Once there at 11PM she met up with the other members of her team. Jon called her at that time and said he felt like he could go to sleep. I have to admit I almost called her at 11:30 to make sure she was OK but I told myself it was not my job and I knew Jon would be taking care of things.
Anyway ,she has talked to Kathleen and will meet with her tomorrow.Kathleen and Brian will try to get to as many of her games as they can. ( There will be 4 games. )There are 160 teams , I think,from across the couuntry and college recruiters are there) She will have some free time so will have dinner at their house tomorrow night.
The web site for the AK lady hoops is.http://www.akladyhoops.com/ It has some info about the team, as well as a little bio for her. By the way she is not 5'11" I think she is more like 5' 8"..
She seems too young for such an adventure. The other team members are almost all from the Anchorage area. She said she is the only one from the "Vil" and was shy about meeting city girls.

What an opportunity for Jenna. Bet she is enjoying the sunshine in AZ. I am in Cheyenne babysitting and it is really cold here. Lots of snow but is supposed to get nice Monday.
