Fall Happenings!

These past few months have been filled with nonstop running! I have finally put everyone's schedule in my phone so I can get an alarm reminding me to pick up someone or take someone else where they need to be.  Yes, that means I have learned the hard way and left a child at gymnastics longer than planned or forgot Ashley had volleyball practice which in turn made it so she had to miss a game!

I have no good volleyball pics of Ashley's 7th grade team!  They ended up getting 2nd place in their conference!  They only lost one game all season to O'leary (Ashley didn't play that game) and then they lost the championship game again to the same O'leary team.  They are a good group of girls that have a lot of fun together. Ashley played outside hitter in a 6-2 offense.  I will be coaching these girls in club ball again once spring is here. 

 Ashley #7

She had a Sunday off after her volleyball tournament and then she started Basketball on Monday.  She has made the bball team and continues to be a cheerleader!  She is super busy and still managed to get a 4.0 this last term!  Good job Ashley.  More than anything I am proud of her for being a good friend to everyone and making people feel welcome and included!

 I have no good cheerleading pictures either!  This one they are all freezing at halftime despite a marvelous warm fall we have had this year.  The video sound doesn't work and I don't know why.  Ashley is in the back right.

 

Mikayla's Team Volleyball Champions OTRD!

Melanie and I coached our daughters in city league volleyball this year and ended up being victorious!  Our last tournament game came down to the very last serve!  How fitting that our smallest player who could never get a serve over all year until the last few games was up to serve last!  She smacked the ball over and we won 15-13.  The girls rallied around her and put her up on their shoulders.  Her mom was in tears and said this was the best experience ever for her daughter because all the girls treated her so nicely all through the year even though she was small and struggling.
