San Juan County Fair - Mud Volleyball - Geriatric Division Champs

I say geriatric because our team of 6 was an average of 20 years older than every other team we played, most of them high school age. Yeah, we still got it.

I post the first picture with gratitude to my hubby for joining me on this escapade. He usually raises the eyebrow and says,"I'm not doing that." The period at the end of the sentence meaning the discussion is over. This time he raised the eyebrow then changed his clothes and came along for the fun. I am slowly winning him over to the dark side (otherwise known as the fun side of the beach).

Doesn't he look like he is having fun?

We played with our pals the LaRoses and the Bradfords. All awesome, couldn't handle life without them sort of friends.

Mike for some reason felt like we should win these games so he was the first to dive in the mud. He wears it well.

For a tall girl, I stink at volleyball. No really, I can say that without the need for compliments. I need some serious work. I think I managed to get this one over the net but I am sure it was not pretty. Ashley and Justin need to start a clinic for me on the next visit home.

Randy LaRose ALWAYS has his game face on. Even to play UNO for family night. Do or die for this man.

We won our first, lost our second, and then got to play for the consolation bracket 3rd and 4th place. The night game was great under the lights and with the crowd roaring (cue the 45 people in the stands cheering us on).

Do you love Alisa's face? She is a tiny little thing but a spitfire! Bring it babe!

Finally a picture of us together - we have so few!

Sadly, we lost this one but walked off with our heads held high, knowing that we were the geriatric division champs. No one could touch us in our age bracket (I am learning that means everything in these competitions).


Randy, Jenna, Alisa, and Mike showing how to play dirty and still be good people.

Next year, we are taking it all the way. Practice starts Monday. Mud not included.
