Aubrey's 2016 Sophomore Night

 The whole gang. Coaches, manager & players.

 Savanna, Aubrey & Masha (Marria from Ukraine)

 They couldn't decide how to hug!

 Aubrey & Coach Kay

 Now for some pics of the actual game, they won, in 3 vs. South Mountain

 A time out. There's Gila Hank, off to the right.

Now we are at the Kleinman's. There were all kinds of activities going on. BBall, guns of many kinds, par kour. ( a very sweaty situation!)

At the last scheduled VB game at Chandler/Gilbert. They won in 3 games. 

The restaurant Gecko Grill- a little more time with the Kleinman's, the team & Aubrey.

Sept.-Oct. 2016 Good times between ID & AZ

 The first days of Sept. Dad &I went to a VB tournament at Yavapai College. That meant we could watch Aubrey play 4 VB games & be with the Kleinmans. Win. Win.

 The boys were really enjoying watching the games & keeping score. There are two courts going for tournaments, and it's hard to see the score table most of the time.

Sorry I don't take great pictures. Aubrey is hitting & blurry!

 Her hair covers her number 11.

 Again a blurry hitter.

 Aubrey stayed with us for Sunday, because of Labor Day on Monday.

 The boys made quite the fort with the air mattresses.

I went back to AZ by myself the last part of Sept. I was in PV for a few days, then drove to Yuma to see EAC play against AZ Western. Kinda a crazy drive, but so great to  watch "our kids" play sports.

 I stayed longer than originally thought, because Nathan wanted me to watch his Saturday soccer game. The first half of the game he plays________?position. The second half he is goalie.

 Sunday was my 55th birthday. As you can see, they treated me very special.

Yes, that's Kleinman'a at our house. How very fun for us!

 We pulled out the old blue tent. There was plenty of room in the house, the weather was a bit chilly, but grandpa really wanted to sleep out in the tent, with the kids.  There are a lot of farm stories as part of this up & coming tradition.

 Kendal & Claire joined us Saturday night & Sunday.

 Bracken is very good at building his kind of Hawaiian Haystacks.

 For dessert they were dressed up!

Games, Bocce ball, Spot it, a puzzle, the trampoline......filled the evening
