Weekend of Volleyball

So, this past weekend was filled with Volleyball. I have been playing ward volleyball the last couple of months (our ward and another ward have been a team). We played well, and made it to the regional tournament, so this last weekend was the regional tournament. On Friday night we played two games. It was pool play to see where you ended up the next day. We won one game and lost one game. On Saturday, it was lose and your out of the the tournament. We had worked hard the night before to get our line-up how we wanted it (good enough to win). But come Saturday, we lost. We played well (with a few mistakes of course). But it was fun, and we lost to a good team, so that made it okay.

This is a picture of the ladies who played on Saturday (only Karyn and myself played from our ward).

Angie and me (I'm in the blue shirt) blocking.

After the game in the morning, I spent my afternoon doing my Saturday cleaning (sounds right!).

Earlier this last week, I had Bunco, and was the top prize winner!!

Sunday brought the primary program. Because I teach the 11/12 year-olds, most of my class has graduated from primary. So, I helped with Ashton's class. I was so proud of Emma, she got up to the microphone and said her part loud and clear "Family home evening can bless and strengthen my family". But Ashton refused to do his part. No amount of bribery would change his mind. Oh well, none of us felt like we needed to force him, and he was up there singing, so that was good. Mike had a good time sitting and laughing at Parker (he was singing so loud!!). It was a good weekend.

For family home evening we decided to make caramel popcorn, the kids loved watching the popcorn, but wouldn't eat the caramel corn - that's okay, more for us.
