The Green Family: June 2018

I let 6 months pass without posting. This is most likely because I send everything to my mom via facebook messenger and she is probably the only one who ever looks at this page. But I try to keep it up-to-date so I have an electronic photo album in the cloud...you know just in case.

First a cute dog photo. I adore these two dogs! I tolerate the others...

The entire first 6 months of this year could be summed up in one word. Volleyball.

It. Is. All. We. Did.

4 practices a week. LOTS of driving. Traveling to tournaments every other weekend. A neglected son. My house has never been so dirty and my yard has never been so out of control. I'm not sure I will ever catch up. But the girl loved it. I love the important life lessons she is learning through team sports. We had some ups and some downs and some really low downs this season but "J" definitely came out on the other side stronger, more confident, and more mature.

First Tournament Fun

Even Grandma and Grandpa came to a tournament.

We went to all kinds of places for tournaments...like places I swore I would never go to again...
Spoiler Alert...its Gatlinburg and we had to go twice.

The necks were red and the moonshine was fine. Or as my daughter says "this is the White-est place I've ever been"

I stayed at my first ever "roadside" hotel. As a person who avoids hotels at all costs (yuck) it was quite shocking to my system to have to spend SO MANY nights in hotels this year. This little roadside throwback wasn't bad. "J" got her own room and we could easily walk to the overpriced and underwhelming attractions.
