High School Volleyball 082724

I attended Kennedy's first home game of the season August 27th. Their uniforms are maroon. Kennedy is number 14. She has a friend that if you don't look close they favor. Her number is 12. There are several short video clips from the games.

Kennedy was off to a promising start until 2 days later when she dislocated her shoulder in volleyball practice! I know! I thought the same thing ... How on earth??!! 

It was such a bizare accident. Kennedy and another girl both went up to block the ball. Kennedy came down first. The girl next to her came down with her elbow against Kennedy's shoulder knocking it out of socket! 

Here are screenshots I took from Vanessa's Facebook page about the event.

She is out 6-8 weeks. Volleyball season is over for her this year.

However, there is good news. After an MRI and visit to an Ortho, no surgery is needed. She is right now 6 weeks out from the injury and is no longer wearing a sling and is able to do some. The Dr said she can do as she tolerates but warned her that even if it feels healed to know she isn't healed completely. A full recovery would take a year. She seems to be doing very well so far.

Have a good one!

Scrimmage 08.09.2024

Kennedy hadn't played in nearly a year due to a nagging knee injury. She has finally recovered. 

Kennedy's first day of school was Thursday, August 8th. Her second day of school she got to miss for a volleyball scrimmage. It was held in the morning in a town about an hour away. I took off work and rode with the kids to watch.

She didn't get to play a lot but at least she got to play. She is at the net in about the middle of the photo.

She only got to serve once but it was a good serve. However they lost the volley.

Some short video clips of Kennedy in action.

Have a good one!

First Day of School 080824

 Kennedy is a Freshman in high school this fall. She enrolled in a small local school about 10 miles away called Millsap.  

Her first day of classes was August 8th.

Kennedy has made friends with some of the students attending there as she has been attending a church that several Millsap students go to.

This is Kennedy's friend Kinley. She lives in the same neighborhood as Kennedy.

Kennedy has also made the JV volleyball team so there will be pictures and some video coming.

So far she likes school!

Have a good one!

July 4th

Remi was here the month of July. I got these pictures from Remi.

The kids went to watch the local fireworks show. Doyle and I opted to stay home.

Tremaine Dance Convention June 24-26

 Kennedy had the opportunity to attend a dance convention at the Gaylord in Grapevine June 24-26th. Vanessa invited me to go with them.

Lots of girls warming up 

Kennedy is in black with the beige knee brace.

Learning dance moves to "Love Shack".

Learning dance moves for "You gotta work for it" . This one was a little more complicated but I was amazed at how quickly all the girls remembered the moves! Kennedy is wearing a Blue shirt. She changed after lunch.

This one all the observers had to sit at the side as this time it was videoed.

All the students waiting to watch the teachers perform.

It was a fun time. I'm glad I went.
