Thank you everyone.... the site helped me a lot. We're packing tonight, and laughing all the way about what is and what isn't alowed to be packed. Baseball bat? Come on! She's on a soccer team, but what if she was on a softball team traveling? Would they all have to leave their bats at home? Bats are expensive, so its not like they would just buy new ones when they got to town. We were joking that they'd start claming the soccer spikes were deadly projectiles, and the shin gaurds were protective armor!
