But the very best news is that she made the varsity volleyball team. This is a goal she set for herself last Spring. She joined a club team, went to camps the summer and it paid off. We are so proud of her.
Tuesday was the first day of school. The day started with 90 minute volleyball practice so Ally went to school in her practice clothes. She changed after practice and met up with me for “registration” which was kind of crazy, lots of parents and kids getting some information about school programs, Ally got her picture taken for her school ID, and best of all she got a locker! We are so happy. Now she doesn’t need to carry her shoes to and from school each day for practice.
Wednesday morning. It’s hard to get up with Cloey so cuddled in.
Becky’s first day outfit.
Wednesday was “orientation day” lots of get to know each other games and a 10th grade service project.
Thursday was the first day of classes. I posted this to Facebook and Ally’s kindergarten teacher commented that she has the same smile as when he taught her.
So I looked it up and check it out! She does have the same smile and head tilt.
Friday her volleyball team had a scrimmage after school. Ally came home and collapsed. Her pets want to be near her always.
Saturday Ally had 2 volleyball practices, 9-11 and 1-3 with lunch and a break at school between them.
She came home, napped and showered and then we went over to Andy’s house to meet up with some friends for dinner.
I went inside to tell the teenagers it was time for dessert and found 4 of them like this. Erik playing piano, Andy accompanying Erik on the trumpet, Sophocles playing Minecraft and Ally on the floor playing on her phone.
Ally, Violet & Stella.
We’ve been friends for a long time. 12 years now. So good to get together.
It was a fun, and exhausting week.
