10 hours of Volleyball for the 10 year old

Yes you read right. 10 HOURS... of volleyball. If they weren't playing or warming up, her team was reffing for another team so no breaks. This is her first time playing club volleyball and her first tournament so it was quite an experience but she LOVED it. Absolutely loved it. As for me, 10 hours on bleachers is not what I am used to, but it was so fun to watch the girls. 
 So Greta gets coached by high school coaches at South Albany. The coaches and the girls are so amazing and kind. Sadly, this isn't the school that Greta will be going to. She will be going across town to a larger high school because of where we live. So we took a picture of her jersey because one day she may be wearing different colors :( So thankful they are letting her play and coaching her this year, she has learned so much. 
 Just realized the cat is in this picture, always in the middle of everything.. here is Greta at 7 a.m. ready to head to her tournament.
