peach days 2011

this year i got invited to play in the peach days volleyball tournament so i started out my labor day weekend playing volleyball from 4:00 pm to 4:00 am!  it was so much fun and my team was a blast.  i was so glad to have an old high school friend, jamie, come down and join us that i hadn't seen or talked to since high school!  it was so good to catch up with her and our other really good friend, tami, also.  i was so grateful to be able to play and visit the night away with my friends.  one of our other teammates got proposed to so it was just all around exciting.  we were sponsored by cedar post pawn and didn't do great, but had fun nonetheless.  the next day i wanted to be able to participate in the little celebration of our town's heritage and let jorel enjoy some of it too.  we missed the parade because of the late night (early morning?) so went down a little before noon and met up with mummi and grandpa for some funnel cake.  they left and i let jorel do some of the rides and such.  i also entered a couple of pictures into the art contest and won sweepstakes ($15!) on one of them in the amateur division.  even thought it was a little contest, it was still pretty cool.  i won on the foot picture below.  we went home after a little bit and came back for a navajo taco, to pick up my winnings, and for the fireworks.  jorel ended up with a "light saver" also?  spoiled.... :)

That last picture is priceless. What a cute kid you had. I may have to take my kids to Lion King in 3D after your review. :)
