VOLLEYBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys!
Sorry, I have been away, we took a little (ha!) trip to the East coast to see our oldest grandson graduate from basic. Go Justin!!!

I will try to catch up by starting with last week's volleyball game.
We had a couple of new people, Breanna and Esra/Emily. These gals, one on each side, really took off. They said Esra played on a college team but I think they were pulling my leg. She played very well though! So did Breanna!
We started out with an amazing volley. Everybody was wired! First game was won by us older folks, 18-16, next two by the youth, 18-16 and 15-5. They slaughtered us the last one.
Just as we were really getting into it Justin, Jessie and Dayrn's boy, got hurt (not playing with us). He wouldn't stop crying even when Pastor offered him a green gum ball. Then we all heard this pitiful whining....redddddd one. Red one did the trick, he stopped!
Corbie was our power hitter of the evening. There's something to be said for playing when you're a little chipped off! She walloped that ball time and time again matching even their strongest guy hitters! Judy saved the day with a return that astonished us all!
Lonnie was one of our best players, spiking it right on those tall kids. This blogger was serving and hit him twice, once in the head then the back. LOL!
Ron even joined us and had the play of the night! The ball nearly touched the ground when he caught it with his toe and launched it straight up into the air and over the net at the last minute!
The younger Kortz boys were all over the field, one goof after another. Trying especially hard. Trenton actually hit the ball with his head twice.
Starla got determined after a few fails and knocked the stuffing out the ball. We all cheered!
After dragging ourselves happily off the court and downing an case of water we had some good teaching by Ron. Thanks Honey!
You can hear Pastor's message from Sunday morning on our church website. thelighthouseatgrandjunction.com
She challenged us that for 40 days we are to become aware of Jesus'
presence in our everyday lives. Setting an extra place at dinner, buckling
Him in in the car, watching tv or movies with Him ect.

You'll see me driving down the street talking to Jesus, nothing new there!
Ciao!
