weekend/mother's day/volleyball.

This weekend was full of fun and some chaos...but the good kind.

I left friday afternoon and picked up Lyns at school and headed to her house. We left for Corvallis/Albany. Lyns was playing volleyball at the OSU campus on saturday and sunday.
We made it to Albany pretty early and waited for Candi and the kids to get down. Then went to dinner and just hung out. We got to bed about 10, which was good cause we had to be at the campus at 7... The first night was interesting, didn't get much sleep, but was wide awake at 5:30. The girls started off rocky but seemed to get together in the next game. They had a few hours in between playing so I got the chance to meet up with Angela my friend since grade school and catch up. It was nice to see her and swap stories.

So after that they played again and let's just say they didn't play as hard and as good as they know how. After that it was time to head back to the hotel...and we took the scenic route. =) Aka...we were lost. Jeff however "knew exactly where we were" and we made it back to the right route in no time. So from not getting much sleep I was pretty tired and Lyns had a long day playing we fell asleep for awhile. Then headed to dinner. Dinner was quite entertaining... lots of funny things going on. Then headed back to the campus to watch the OSU girls play against WOU, thye beat them all 3 games. By the time that was over we were all sleepy. Nana and papa had made it up while we were at the game. It had been a long day. So when we got back to the hotel Lyns, Chels, and I all took our showers and headed to bed...but unlike the parents we didn't fall asleep as fast. I gave Lyns a hand massage and we giggled and talked for a while and then decided we better get some sleep. We all slept much better that night...and she stayed in her side of the bed. =) ha.

Sunday was of course Mother's Day so we all had cards and gifts for the Mam. =) It was a good day. The girls played MUCH better. It was a good day of playing but we didn't get to stick around for very long. So after it was all done we said our goodbye's to nana and papa and to Candi and the kids. and waited for Lyns to finish reffing(sp). I fell asleep in the car waiting for them. Well when they were done Lyns decided to stay with her boy to watch his sister play so the rest of us headed home. I think Chels and I slept most of the way home. It was a good day, a good weekend.
