Today was my Littles first volleyball tournament. I wrote out some things I learned today. All in all it was a great day. I'm a VERY proud Mama! My Little did great. Even Anthony made a point to let her know how proud he is of her and how well she did. It was fun.
We are of the minority, short people don't play this sport. I think they measure you and your parents when trying out and minimum height requirement is 6'.
All tournaments are in warehouses, built by block, aluminum doors and NO HEATER! It's colder than the North Pole and you should dress accordingly if you want to be comfortable and not get sick.
You will be getting up at the butt crack of dawn for every single tournament and you will be traveling very far away! Get used to it, it will be worth it! Just make sure you get your sleep.
It is a LONG day! Plan accordingly. A Leap Pad or another DS might be a great investment.
Man, do I feel out of my element! Thank goodness for great parents on the team!

Wrestling, Volleyball and Track
So, my older ones within these past few months decided that they were giving up soccer. Adriana wants to pursue her Volleyball journey. She made the club team for Beaumont, which is AWESOME! She did amazing on the high school volleyball team last season. I was a proud Mama for sure! Today she texted me and told me that she tried out for the track team at school. I guess we will see where this leads her next. She is currently still playing for her AYSO fall team, they made area playoffs. She is also no practicing for her club team. She is going to through track into the mix also. My crazy girl. But I guess I would rather her be busy than too much time on her hands getting herself into trouble.
Anthony has decided to quite the HS soccer team due to the coach just being a jerk. I don't blame him at all. He has wanted to be on the wrestling team for the past 2 years. He finally went out for the team. Currently the coach has told him that he won't be wrestling for a while. I talked with a friend of mine who's daughter is on the team also. She said she will put a word in for him. We will see what happens. He's pretty excited to be learning the moves and techniques. He is getting into the weights and what not.
I guess I'll keep ya'll updated as I can!
