Volleyball Grandma!

I have just become a volleyball Grandma, and am proud as punch! This year, Anne Marie is on her school soccer team. The first game was tonight.  She came in at the end, scored FOUR points for her team, and won them the game!!! She never stopped smiling. Neither did I.

Of course her sisters Jazz & Dara were there. I may have sneaked them in some unicorn cookies!

The umpire, not a young man, had to stand on this ladder the entire time.

And at the net.

Way to go Anne Marie :) Great action photos Ginny and love the one of you with Anne Marie and the others of Jazz and Dara. Your granddaughters are beautiful!

I don't think that's soccer... it's volleyball... but still fun to watch! Our granddaughter plays soccer but I think I'd rather her play volleyball as that's always played indoors. Soccer games are never cancelled for weather except if there's lightning. Ugh! Beautiful pictures... such happiness abounds. Love, Andrea xoxo

You had me puzzled with the "soccer" but the quote at the end (volleyball) I think sorts it out...

Love that you are the Grandma with the most...what ever the game. Great captures of their win.

Those grandchildren appreciate the presence of a grandparent at a game.

Every time I see Anne Marie I am amazed at how grown up she seems...they grow up just too fast, don't they? (I have a lot of senior moments, and I have no excuse)
