More Volleyball (A LOT MORE!)

 Anastasia had a game Thursday then a tournament with 3 games Friday and 3 on Saturday, then a game today. It was a lot of volleyball, but we had so much fun watching her. And her team played well and learned/improved lots. Pawpaw came to the Thursday game and Friday tournament.

Her team lost Thursday, placed 4th in the tournament with several very close games at the end, and won Monday.

Aggie Football Game!

We were so blessed to receive free tickets to the Aggie game Saturday. It took some juggling, but most of us were able to make it (Austin generously volunteered to take Anastasia to her volleyball tournament and brought Cecilia along). It was fun but SO HOT!

First ever Aggie Football game!

Volleyball!

 Anastasia joined the homeschool volley ball team (BV Mustangs) in the spring. They finally had their first game of the season, and she played really well. So proud of our girl!

She had some good serves

And this was an awesome play in which she dove under the ball right up against the net and was able to hit it over. The other team was so surprised they didn't even touch it, and her team got the point!

Victorian Ball

 We had a fun night of dancing and dinner with lots of wonderful friends!

Nothing like a game of ball tag before the dancing starts! LOL!

4-H Awards Banquet

 There was a yummy dinner, and all the kids won awards for their record books from last year, plus Sebastian won the Rookie award. Sadly Gloria had to miss due to work.

Annual 4-H Cake Show

We started making fondant decorations 2 days before the show, baked the day before, and put together/decorated the day of. This was the least stressful cake show prep ever! 
Baking and fondant...

Birthday Gathering at Lita's

We went to Lita's to celebrate the August and September family (and a close friend or two) birthdays. There are many. The food was yummy, the cousins had fun swimming, and the adults enjoyed chatting.
