Haley just made the volleyball team, and last night was their first game. She played great, served great, and made some awesome digs. I love this game! It takes me back to my days in Jr High and High School. Being on the volleyball team was one of my favorite things ever. I'm so glad Haley gets to experience this too! Hopefully we will soon have a backyard big enough to have a net up. Grace was a little put out because she couldn't play with the big girls.
Matthew was pretty good, for about half of the first game. Every time he heard a whistle (which was a lot -- before each serve, after each play -- and there were two games going on at the same time) he would yell, "Uh Oh!" It was cute, for the first 50 times. Then, not so much.
About half way through the first game, he finally figured out that Haley was playing. So then he kept yelling her name and running onto the court. We didn't stay much longer. Luckily, Ben has a great job that he can leave during the day, so he was there to stay and watch. But it's my turn to stay on Saturday!
The kids loved the drinking fountain and the bleachers. Joey only had to drag Matthew out of the boys' bathroom once. Grace positioned herself at the door and pretended to take $2 from everybody who entered or exited. She's going to make a good buisness woman someday.
Haley's number 13. She is the shortest one on the team, but she works hard and has a lot of talent!
