Granddaughter Lauren & the HS team she plays on won their volleyball game the other night. She is the setter and got named Player of the Match. Her older sister, granddaughter Ali, besides working full time & taking additional college courses, volunteers as an assistant coach.
All of the above is wonderful, but The Best part came after the game, when Ali gave Lauren a box.

Such beautiful girls. A look of their grandma about them too.
ReplyDeleteNelly, Thanks, I don't know if they look like me, but Marymine swears Lauren is the spit'n image of me... in pranking and temperament...
DeleteNow THAT was well done! :-)
ReplyDeleteOld NFO,
DeleteIt was wasn't it!
What a lovely memory for all of you and now you have a wedding!!
ReplyDeleteTabor, Yes, we have a wedding! Ali is the planner in the family, and I know it will be a wonderful event.
DeleteGood form, that.
ReplyDeleteLL,
DeleteMarymine has raised her children right, and it shows.
What a great game. I was playing volleyball the first and only time I missed a date with Gruntessa. Flowers saved me that time. Great honor for Lauren and Ali.
ReplyDeleteGruntOfMonteCristo,
DeleteAli went to college on a full ride volleyball scholarship, dean's list all the way, and just graduated with a degree in biology. I should be humbler about this, but these kids all know how to work.
Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteChickenmom,
DeleteIt is indeed!
Congrats to your Grand's great game and her cool sister who puts in the extra time coaching.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a great way to ask. Bet there was a tear or two.
Arkansas Patti,
