Volleyball


We finally got the snow that Omaha was experiencing! The girls enjoyed not one but TWO snow days! The boys had some fun in the snow as well. 



We had the kick-off volleyball tournament  - that started off.... very rough. Heidi's volleyball club is brand new and Heidi joined because she liked the coaches and wanted a fresh start. I think we saw 6 or 7 different rotations of players - which is never a good sign for a volleyball team... 

Heidi went from playing back row defensive (which is what she does) to front row and all around and eventually setting again! The other girls were lost on the court and a little painful to watch. The last few games they had Heidi starting setting before rotating to right side/front row. I was very proud of Heidi. She doesn't love setting, but she can do it and really did a great job.  

She rolled with the punches of the ever-changing line-up and then she took control of that court. She ran that court and showed the other girls what to do. She honestly did! They finally won a game straight out and they looked halfway decent. Still bumpy - still going to need to get these girls to be MORE aggressive, but I'm hoping we actually win some games along the way.
