6th Beach Bonfire

As part of the 6th Grade committee, we decided to plan some activities for the kids to help make their last year of elementary school memorable. We planned ice skating, bowling, movie night, and a beach bonfire. Friday was the bonfire. It was alot of fun for the kids and us "supervising" adults.  Hotdog dinner was served and the kids played volleyball, limbo and football.
Some of us took romantic strolls along the beach at sunset.

The kids sang songs around the bonfire and roasted marshmallows for s'mores.
I like this picture of Dan & I, and especially like the backdrop. If only it was taken from the other direction.. you would see the gorgeous ocean.

Rammstein Concert

We saw Rammstein last year and thought they were done touring, so when we heard they were coming back we were super excited.  We were lucky enough to get some last minute Club Level Rammstein tickets for the concert on Thursday. Our tickets last year were in the sky! The concert was awesome! We could see everything, and at the very end I got 4 rows back from the lead guitarist and made eye contact TWICE! My "Concert Whore" outfit worked! ( That and I was the only person standing in that row...because they didnt sell the seats there.)

 
Lead Guitarist Richard Kruspe- Pretty much what I looked at all night!



US Olympic Volleyball Scrimmage

Last night I took the girls to a volleyball scrimmage played by the US 2012 Olympic Team. When compared to the girl's volleyball team (of which I am the coach) there was not one similarity except the court size. I couldn't believe how fast and tall these girls were!  I have no idea how tall this girl is, but I am 5'4" so she has to be darn near 7'.

 Throughout the game, little volleyballs were thrown in the crowd. So after the game the girls went up to get autographs.




Pete Carroll (Seattle Seahawks Coach) was in the crowd, just down from us. ( I didn't know who he was but all of the men did.)
