The Number 2 is Cool!

Jackson, Aliza, Callin, and Maddie all were  #2 for football and volleyball.  We thought that was pretty cool.  We were glad they had their shirts with them when they came to visit for the day.

Club Volleyball

Being in 7th grade starts a lot of fun activities.  Club volleyball is one of them here in Laurel.  Aliza decided to join not only because she loves volleyball, but her cousin Kyla was playing as well.  Kyla, however, is in the 8th grade so they wouldn't play on the same team.  However, with the 8th grade team needing a couple of more players, they asked if anyone would be willing to move up.   Aliza, or I said she would be happy to.  Now she can play with Kyla and I would have Amy to sit with.  It was so nice.  Plus, when I had to be at one of Jackson's lacrosse tournaments, Amy could take her to the game.

The games (tournaments) were every Saturday for about 6 weeks from 8 in the morning till sometimes 5 or 6 at night. It was a long day.  But, fun to watch.  Aliza has a mean serve.

She got to play with some great girls and learned a lot.  Even though they didn't win every time, they were still good sports and had a great attitude.

These two girls have played a few sports together.  Basketball in 5th and 6th grade, and now volleyball.  Hope they get to play together in 9th and 10th, 10th and 11th, and 11th and 12th grades.....  Such beautiful girls.  Love them.

7th Grade Volleyball

Aliza decided to play volleyball this year.  She has never really played before, except a little with her cousins Paige and Kyla.  By the end of the season, she was amazing.  She was the one that everyone on the other side of the net was afraid of when it was her turn to serve.  Boy does she have a mean serve.

They had two 7th grade teams.  Aliza's won a little more than half of theirs.  Not bad for a bunch of girls that have never played before.

They usually play every Thursday and Saturdays, and on Saturdays, more than one team, so it was a long day.  But I loved watching them play.

At the end of the season, the moms played against the girls.  The moms won. :)  My 8th and 9th grade volleyball playing came in a little handy that day :)
