Bump, Set, Spike!

Everyone in our house has caught serious "Olympic Fever", so Thursday night John went out and bought the kids a volleyball/badminton set so we could have our very own Olympics right in the backyard. It was really a great idea and we were all totally pumped up for it...that was until the skies opened that night and it proceeded to POUR out very cold, sad rain for the next 2 days.
Thankfully, Sunday turned out to be a beautifully dry day and we took full advantage of it and got the net set up. Zach's friend Jeremy was over and the six of us (minus Ashley who was over at Bridget's house) played volleyball for 3 straight hours...it was SO MUCH FUN!! Then Cameron and I had to leave on a little preplanned date. So John, Courtney and the boys switched and played badminton for a few more hours...only coming inside once the last of the shuttlecocks were stuck up on the roof. We all had a blast and boy was it a workout...all of us were really feeling it this morning.
