Volleyball in Paris


We had a busy weekend in Paris ahead of us.  First volleyball on Friday and Saturday and then off to Disney for an orchestra performance.  
This year volleyball was a bit different.  Typically, there are 6-8th graders on the team but this year all the 8th graders tried out for the JV high school team ,and most made it.  So, that left Preslee and the other 7th grade girls as the oldest on the team playing against most other teams that still had their 8th graders.  Preslee was one of the team captains, so she had to step up and lead the team.  We had a lot of new players and Preslee would have to help them learn the ropes.  The team had a rough start, but by this time they were starting to meld really well together.  












This girl was going wild in the hotel that night!  Dancing and jumping on the beds....she's getting a little crazy I think.
