Volleyball & Hockey

Lucy's volleyball pictures! I love them! We have 3 more tournaments left - one this weekend, one in April and one in May. The season is about half way done and Lucy is still loving it.

We hit 70 degree weather and had a little bit of Jeep fun. We can't wait for the weather to stay nice.

Saturday we headed off to the Hockey Pucks & Paws event again. This event is always chaos but we love it just the same. Noah tagged along for this one and I think he was in shock too at the chaos. They said 550 dog tickets were sold! 

The dogs did well. Rizzo only wiggled out of his harness twice - whoops - and Remy just kind of chilled. But Remy did not pee on anything he shouldn't have and Rizzo did not snap at any other dogs - so that is a win! I do have to say the dogs slept basically all Saturday night and were SO tired on Sunday too. 

Rizzo recovering in the sun on Sunday...

Today for school was Outsiders day as 7th grade finished the book, they get to dress like their assigned group (Lucy is a greaser) and watch the movie. Lucy was very excited to wear her outfit.

Another busy week ahead of us, Chris is traveling all week, I think we have something going on each night this week, and we travel for volleyball this weekend. Here we go!

Family Time

Heidi had her Senior girls retreat this past week. Thank you to everyone that scrambled to give her a letter. She was surprised by how many notes that were collected - especially since we weren't given a ton of time. The dogs were very excited for her return. 

 

She said the retreat was fun and glad she did it! This weekend was very chill and relaxing and we honestly had nothing planned for the weekend. Lucy and I did a little shopping, Heidi actually hung out with us, and overall it was a great weekend!

Like I said, the dogs were excited for Heidi to back home!

In prep for graduation, we are trying to tackle each area of the house now in hopes it will make our lives easier as we get closer! I decided to tackle the pantry - at least this time I didn't find rotten onions - but the pantry is back functional again! Let's see how long it lasts... 

This week is a normal week with a fun hockey game this weekend to look forward to! 

Volleyball

 

It was another full weekend of volleyball! First the positives: Lucy's team has true moments of great volleyball and it is so much fun to watch. Lucy got several of her serves over - including 2 aces! Which is huge! She did struggle to get more than one over, but she hopes with some more practice she can get it. The team did okay and ended up in the middle of the pack. They are just hot and cold. They took down some real great teams but then also lost to teams they should have beat or were beating. Each time they are getting better and it has been fun to watch the progress. 

Now the negative - sprinkled into the tournament was a stomach bug. I don't know if we came with it or everyone got it while there, but at some point everyone had some stomach bug symptoms. Poor Lucy even had to run out of a game because of it and a teammate actually went home.  Those restrooms at the tournament site was getting a lot of usage from everyone there. I can't help feel like that place had Norovirus all over it. It wasn't great sitting in a volleyball tournament trying to not poop yourself. I wouldn't recommend it. The drive home on Sunday was the longest 1.5 hours ever. Everyone is feeling better today. 

Heidi stayed home and took care of the dogs...

Chris likes when he has to "Jeep" park at places...

Well hopefully that is the last sickness for awhile. We are looking forward to a normal weekend this week!
