Just Take It!!!!!




This weekend Justin and I went to Kansas city, Kansas to do a volleyball camp. It was the most fun we've had in a while. We went with Six of our friends Chris, Josh, Camie, Maegan, Ali and Miah and had a blast. We got there on Friday night after a miserable flight. The lady in front of us let her baby scream the whole three hour flight while she played games on her phone.We met the coach, she was the coolest lady ever!! She took care of us better than our own mothers. (no offence mom we love you) She was kind enough to warn us that the girls were not going to be any good, it is nice to know what you are getting into. We met at the house with an old friend that we have not seen in a while, jeremiah. He quit possibly could be the funniest person on earth. example... He says to a girl "do you ever wonder why things that happen to stupid people always happen to you." Well that was just a taste of his greatness. We did the camp and we rocked it! But really the camp was a side note to the fun that really went on.



- First off the gym we were in was a big inflated dome. Yes an inflated dome and it was cold.


- Miah and all the stories about his brother Dana. ( the left handed female pitcher.)
- Ali drinking coffee out of a thirty ounce mug from the QT



- Ali drinking three of those in a 24 hour period.


- Chris bragging about the fact that he makes money and doesn't really have a job.


- Going to eat the BEST barbecue this side the Mississippi.


- Watching Ali devour a whole cow literally, She ate her weight in beef. (reference photo)


- Watching BYU get spanked by Penn State in volleyball.


- Being volleyball ninjas. that's right I said Ninjas.(again reference photo)



- Ali letting Justin peg her in the chest with a serve. She just stood there and took it!


- Eating all of Josh's M&Ms, sorry josh.


- Being cold all the time. Kansas is not a friendly state, thanks to the ice pellets.


- Chris telling people on the plane that Ali had bad gas and diareah so no one would sit by them, even though someone did. ( No bueno fumar)


- Endlessly quoting the Office, Scrubs, and a million other movies and TV shows.


This list could go on and on. I have never laughed so much in my life. This weekend was a great reminder of how special good friends are in a persons life. Justin and I are blessed to have so many wonderful, kind, funny, people in our life. We also feel blessed that we a live style that allows us to travel the country doing what we love. I can think of nothing better.



Camie and Meghan, Poor Camie had the stomach flu, that was no fun.



The Volleyball Ninjas. Here is a little explanation, the temperature in the inflated dome never got above 30 degrees. So we coached in all our warm ups and sweatshirts and jackets. It just so happens that Me Maegan and Ali wore all black the same day hence the Ninja part.







Ali, after trying to eat a whole cow. She just wouldn't stop eating. She was a woman on a mission.












Part of the gang at dinner Chris, Josh, and Miah were coaching the evening session. They missed out. ( can I get that beef flavored) Me Justin Meghan Ali and Pam.

Wow! Looks like you guys had a total blast! I love traveling for work... I always told myself I wanted a job that let me travel, and the first time I did I was so excited! Now I get to a couple times every year, and it's great. PS- do you guys have netflix?
