Sorry for no blog last week. We had a great weekend but did not take a single picture - not even of a dog!
Anyways - we made our way to tournament #2. The team overall did tremendously better this round. We made it to silver and ended up in the best top half of the 24 teams. We will take it! The best part is, they were all smiling and having fun together. Heidi was a beast! She was all over that court and really working hard. I am really proud of Heidi. This is a new club, it is a merged team of freshmen and sophomores. They are asking her to play positions she doesn't normally play and she is absolutely taking on the challenge.
For us, the best part is watching her at the net. She actually blocked several hits and had some kills as well! They are coming together and Heidi is the leader, whether she wants it or not. She gives 110%. As much as I really did not love this new club in the beginning; I have come around. This situation has gotten Heidi to love volleyball again and have fun. I can appreciate it. In the beginning, she missed the National volleyball scene, but she now says, she is having more fun and looks forward to playing more. Heidi even is hanging out with her team in between games which was NOT the case last year.
The tournament was in a huge dome and the lighting was very interesting!
This weekend doesn't have anything going on - except Valentine's hang out for Heidi and Noah and the SuperBowl!
