All the Way to State

I'm going to sidetrack for a minute because I can and say hey to the volleyball team. I am SO excited for you and can't believe I missed it. Jesse said you 'kicked butt' - wish I could have been there. Back to back titles sound so good! Miss you guys and am so proud of you- not just for the win but for who you ladies are as a team and as individuals. You are each unique and incredible on and off the court. Relish every moment - you've earned it.
