Catch Up

The weekend got away from me; here's last week's review:

- Emma had "Battle Cry Week" at school.  This is basically a "homecoming week".  She had a crazy hair/hat day, a dress as your favorite fictional character day (she went as Dr. Who), sports jersey day, and a class color day.  On Friday they had a buffet style lunch with each class having a table of food items.  Angie made stacks of Reuben sandwiches for her.
- Nicholas had in-class spelling bee and won 1st place!
- Nicholas got to dress up as a Super Grammar Hero on Friday.  He went as The Interjection!
- Katelyn had a meet yesterday here in Hampton.  She did pretty well and placed on 3 out of 5 overall categories.  This Friday is State competition.
- Nicholas had his 1st volleyball tournament yesterday.  It was a "friendship" tournament with 3 grassroots teams from our club, 2 teams from Williamsburg, and 1 team from VA Beach.  His team was the youngest of the group so they got beat. However they gave it a good run and lost close ones at 20-25 on a couple games. Lots of nerves and lots of uncertainty on their part...but the experience was great for them.
