One down....many to go!
Today we experienced our very first club volleyball tournament. Luckily for us, it was just about 12 miles from home. We had to be there at 7:30 a.m. All the parents brought food/drinks (breakfast burritos, fruit, veggies, cheese snacks, mini muffins), so we set up our little "corner of the world" among many others and headed to the gym to find out what was going on. Our coaches and girls had to officate the first game (coaches do the officiating, the girls are line judges and score keepers), then we played the 2nd game. Morgan didn't play much, but when she did, she played well. We won. Had a break and the girls ate and goofed around, then back to the gym for the 2nd game. Again, they won. Then they had to officiate again. And play another game....another win. Got a break for food again, then another game. Morgan played most of this last game, and did quite well (awesome block!), and they won! We were in Division 2....since we won all games in our division, we played a game against the winner of Division 1. It was one game, to 25 points. They were good, they were big, we gave them a run for their money, we were ahead a few time....Morgan played good. We ended up losing the game, 20 - 25, but we took 2nd place in the tournament! It was a pretty good experience for our first touranment! Morgan is tired....she fell asleep, but her salad and pizza are here so she drug herself off the couch to eat. I am tired....I spent yesterday at 2 practices, IHOP (team bonding time), running errands, doing laundry, making 2 dozen breakfast burritos and mini banana muffins before going to bed at 10:00 last night. And tossing and turning for about an hour and a half in the middle of the night, wondering if I had everythign I would need. Then I watched volleyball all day....it's exhausting watching kids work hard at a sport an entire day! hehe! So, I'm kicking back for the rest of the night and not doing ANYTHING! We'll do this all again the weekend of the 22nd!
