BYU Volleyball Camp

 With less than a week's notice, a spot opened up for Claire at the BYU Volleyball Camp this summer. We were on a waiting list, so I had signed her up for the SUU camp instead. The stars aligned and our friends the Knudsons were also going up to the same camp, and had room for us in their rental house. Claire and Maddie had an exhaustingly fun time - they learned a lot and got some positive feedback. Claire's coach was from Vegas and plays for the BYU Mens team. Another coach talked to him at one point later in the camp, and Claire overheard her say that Claire was the best setter in the gym. So that really helped her confidence! 




I was also able to meet up with my BYU roommate and friend from back home, Jamie Ortwein. We met for lunch and had a nice catch up. 


I've never hiked the Y - seems weird that we never did while at school, but also, it's super steep!


Another friend, Ken Craig, works for BYU now and lives very close to campus so he was able to meet up at the BYU Bookstore, allowing us to catch up and also spend more money there. :) He has been in some recent LDS pop culture movies (Once I Was a Beehive) and will be in Vegas soon for another movie, Once I Was Engaged. So, he's famous! ;) 


Good times were had by all! We would definitely go back next year if we can, and are making plans to come watch at least one BYU volleyball game.
