I recently got reconnected with my old 2 on 2 outdoor volleyball partner, Sasha! She called me and asked if I would like to play in the UOVA season opener in St George the 1st weekend in April. I talked with Brady and he said it would be fun to get away before things get to crazy with work and school, so we went! It was fun! Here is Isabel chilling at the park watching me play.
Poor Ben. He went to the dentist on Thursday to have some cavities filled and to have his teeth sealed. Well, he was numb and when I looked over at him, he was covered in blood. He bit 4 holes in his tongue. 1 of which went all the way through his tongue. He was pretty miserable :( At least he loved playing at the park with Isabel and Brady! (It took about a week and a half for his tongue to heal. I just had to put orajel on it and make really bland food for him!)
Here is Brady hitting the ball at Ben. Ben has pretty good hand eye coordination. I taught him to hold his hands correctly and he can bump the ball back to me. Isabel is getting good at it too!
Before we left to go home, we stopped by the St George temple. It sure is pretty.
I love this picture of Isabel. She loved being by the water. Couldn't get a good picture of both of the kids by the fountain! Ben just kept trying to touch the water. Surprise!
Here they are at the top of the temple steps.
They liked this picture, because they look so small and the temple looks so big!
Ben had to climb up all the stairs! So, instead of a cute picture by the fountain, I have a cute picture on the stairs!
They loved to show me which flowers they liked. Ben has an airplane sucker in his hand, you know the kind that has the propeller that spins... He liked to try and kill the bugs that were on the flowers. He was making them safe.
There was tons of pollen from the trees on the sidewalk, so on the way back to the car Isabel had us play the game where you had to go as fast as you could without touching it. Notice Brady is not playing :) Besides having to switch hotels the first night, we had a good time. I'm glad we got to go down there and that the weather was nice. Oh, Sasha and I took 3rd in the tournament. We got a gift card to pizza hut (dinner that night) and another gift certificate to Smash Burger (wherever that is?) It was fun to play with her again. I definitely don't move as well as I did when I was 20 (that's how old we were when we used to play!). I do love the sport. If Isabel really gets to be over feet, I would love to see her play!

Okay, why are there no pictures of YOU playing volleyball? Lol I was excited to see you in action. So fun that you got to get away for a bit! We need to chat- miss you!
Glad you had good weather. Did you go in the visitor center there too? Pretty temple. But yes, where are all the volleyball pics?
I agree with Sara and Holly. Volleyball tournament but no pics? Bummer! It's always fun when you can do something for yourself as a mom.
To all who were concerned about lack of pictures of me playing.... you will have to take that up with Brady :) He was busy running back and forth to the park with the kids! I think Sasha's husband took some, so maybe I can get one from him :)
