Measina 2014


Meet the Measina Club Summer 2014 Team!


So as you can see Micah joined up with Measina Club again this year.  The first day I dropped him off I noticed that there weren't any other boys there.  I didn't say a thing to Micah but mentioned it to my friend and they made a comment that I thought.... okay if he says something I am going to use this.  So I went to pick him up after practice and sure enough he said with a little concern, "Mom, I'm the only boy." So I told him, "Well, aren't you lucky!"   He thought a moment and then smiled.

Yes, Micah was very lucky.  They taught him more technique this year and he did pretty well.  With all his energy it was just what he needed.  The last day of the summer program they had games with each other and a visiting team came from the east.  Well, since Micah was the only boy they had him play with the boys from the East.  He got right in there with them.  It was Micah and two other East siders against three East side boys.  It was hilarious to watch.  Micah was good.  He kept up with the boys and got some great hits in.  What was funny was his team..... you know, all the girls he practiced with all summer.... they were all screaming his name and cheering him on!   It was great to see and hear.






Micah did very well.  He is very athletic and I was so happy to have him in this program with Coach Lydia and Coach Tumua.  They are both good coaches who in addition to volleyball also teach respect, fair play and sportsmanship.  Many thanks also to the ASG Parks and Recreation for having this program available!

Beautiful Day

It was a beautiful day in paradise.  What do we do on beautiful days in paradise?  BEACH!!!

Gataivai Beach

We timed it perfectly!  Only one other family on the beach!   The boys of course had to explore the rocks first.  ;)  Here the ocean is steps away and they wanna play in the rocks.  


 Brady found sea snails and Micah found an iPod!  So many fun things on the beach!
 Skyler is looking for shells!

Micah and Skyler caught a couple sand crabs too!  They are fast.  
 Finally, they made it in the water!!!  
It was a really nice day at the beach  and we stayed just long enough to cool off and relax a bit!
