The Ball of Volley.

Yes, t'is the beginning of the year, which means VOLLEYBALL.


All Day. Every Day.

But this year is sooo much different from last year! I am absolutely IN LOVE with my team this year. Everything we do together is an absolute blast. And not to mention that we play like BEASTS out on the court! My closest friends are all on the team with me, which is probably why I love it so much. We've been doing very well, and having a lot of fun while we're doing it. At the beginning of the season, I wasn't sure whether I wanted to try-out or not. But I'm so glad that I did! I know I was meant to! The Lord knew better than I did!
Go Deer Valley!
The big story in my volleyball life this year is my fantastic BLACK EYE.
Yes! You read correctly! I got an AMAZING black eye from practice one day when my middle blocker elbowed me hardcore right in the eye. It left the most amazing battle scar that I've ever had in my life! I was so happy! She felt bad, but I loved it! It made me look way intense. :D
We actually call our team the cursed team. I DEFINITELY was not the only one to get hurt. One of our middle blockers got two sprained ankles (one at different times, each one once), We got a cracked jaw, a broken thumb, a slightly sprained ankle, tendinitis in the shoulder, disconnected knees, jammed fingers, COUNTLESS bruises/scratches (mainly from diving), and many smacks from the volleyballs. 


Just because we're in spandex doesn't mean we don't get nasty.


I still think it's beautiful. :)

That is pretty impressive. I hope it didn't hurt too much.
