Tulsa, Tea Time and lots of volleyball!

We are still going strong and spring hasn't even hit yet.  Brit went with several friends to watch Annaliese play some soccer with Mrs. Misty!

I was excited to have the opportunity to join several other ladies from around the country at a luncheon with the First Lady.  She was so kind to open her home to all of us and allow each of us to share how our organization are impacting lives across the country.  
I even got to try on the Olympic medals of one of the ladies who won in two separate games!!
February was for volleyball, we spent every weekend for 6 weeks in a row at a volleyball tournament for one of the girls.  They both seemed to enjoy their seasons and had a great time learning more about the game!
I think I maybe a bit out of order but we got another unexpected snow and Emma and Brit took advantage and made snow ice cream that night! It was gone by morning but was a fun surprise for at least a bit!

Brit celebrating 2-2-22!  We tried to go all out for school that day!

And after 3 tries this girl finally passed her driver's test! I guess 3rd time was a charm...and a lot of studying!  Now on to the driver's portion...but that will be a bit she still hasn't master that gas pedal yet!

My little baller, shot caller!

A little fun mixed into volleyball weekend in Tulsa.  We took the girls for some golf.

And some pool time at the hotel afterwards.








So proud of these girls..they did great and ended up placing 1st in Silver!

We also got to eat some great food while we were there.


The Gathering Place in Tulsa is awesome.  Such a neat place that is totally free for families.  I would love to go back sometime soon.







And then it was back to Benton the next weekend for little sis to take her turn.  She did great and her team improved throughout the season.  I am so excited for her to continue to learn more about the game and work hard to improve her serving.
She even played the role of sideline judge!
