Lorelei only went out Trick or Treating once this year (I know--can you believe it ??!!). She dressed up as an M & M and we went with her friend Darien and his family. Since we didn't have a subdivision to go to we went to the very popular Oakwood Ave by Fowler Park. We've always heard what a popular and fun area it was. We even stopped at the Sausage Haus where they gave out free sausages !!
Last weekend was potentially our last YMCA volleyball game ever. With Lorelei being in club volleyball next spring, we are not sure if the schedule will allow us to play YMCA volleyball in spring. Lorelei has grown so much as a player over the past few years. I remember when we first started and she couldn't get her underhand serves over and we thought, "Well, we'll do this for 6 weeks and we'll be done." Fast forward and she is now doing overhand serves !!
After nearly 2 months of waiting for it, Lorelei's new bedroom furniture was FINALLY delivered and it's perfect !!!
As our YMCA season with the Jaguars comes to an end, we gear up for another season of club volleyball. Last weekend was intense try-outs again. Lorelei was prepared to tryout for 2 teams. Mama Jamie was prepared for 4. LOL !!! Lorelei tried for Midwest Penguins and Revolution (this was her team last year). We were just hoping one would make an offer at some point during the weekend. However, Lorelei received offers from both teams on the 1st day AND to be on their top teams !!!
After lots of thinking, Lorelei chose the Midwest Penguins (black team). Why ?? "I think I will be more challenged with them." :)
Also, 3 of her teammates from last year's Revolution team will be on as well. ;)
Not even sure where to begin, but, a LOT has happened over the past 2 months. We've had family in town, went to Cancun, back to school, oh...and, bought a new house and moved !!
This summer is flying by !!! July has brought us doing pottery, eating lots of ice cream, meeting wrestlers, birthdays, impromptu photo shoots, shopping, animal safaris, bubbles, the Mall of America, and oh yeah, we bought a new house. :)
