BC Volleyball

Let's go Jaguars!!!

It's so strange for this time of year that we're not sitting in the stadiums around Phoenix at the Football games. But - we haven't missed a beat. Atleast now we get to sit in air-conditioned gyms. Kenna's volleyball season is up and screaming..... and I do mean screaming. (They are so LOUD !) Kenna is playing really well. She is a starter and plays all positions this year. That's really fun for her. She has improved so much in her passing that now she gets to play all the time and not be subbed out. Last Tuesday she was definately the MVP of the game. Not only did she win one of the games with her 8 point serving - she had 4 hits and 2 saves. WAY TO GO MAYBERRY !! We enjoy going to all the games - and we really enjoy her the most. She's so much fun !


The cute little baby that Kenna is holding is her Flour Baby from school. She's in Child Development this semester. They had to make a baby out of a 5 lb. sack of flour. Then they had to carry it everywhere with them (or less their class had a set up daycare station) for 4 days. Very very cute! She said that the hardest part was keeping it from the boys who wanted to play football with her. YIKES !! She was very protective. It was especially hard at the Volleyball games. After one game I asked her friend where Kenna's flour baby was and she said, "Oh, I think it's in her locker." It wasn't, the trainer was babysitting, but it was a funny answer.

Go CHARGERS !!!

A few weeks ago Ken's brother, Chip, gave Ken and I Cardinal tickets. They were playing the San Diego Chargers and they're MY favorite team. So - he unselfishly gave us his club seats for the game. Chad, whose favorite team is also the Chargers, was so jealous. He tried hard to get us to include him in our plans. Actually I think the words were, "Come on, Dad, Mom and I need special time together!" But, Ken was not going for it. He looked into buying a ticket, but quickly gave up that idea when he realized how expensive they are. A couple of days before the game he came home from work with a grin on his face that went for miles. A friend of his had tickets and she was willing to give him one. The only catch was that he had to drive -- and sit with two cute girls for the whole game. HAH! How horrible! Ken and I had a great time. (Chargers won !!) But, for some reason . . . I think Chad had the best time of all. : o )
