Justin and Benjamin are both playing college volleyball this year and they are both in the same league. On Thursday they played their first league game against each other and it just so happened that I had the day off, so I went to watch. Erik didn't feel like coming so I made the trek all on my own. Don't worry, there was only a bit of snow on the highway and there wasn't too much fog. It was pretty safe. I arrived just in time to surprise my dear sister-in-law, sneak in a snuggle with my niece, and eat a bit of dinner before heading off to watch the game. A couple of my aunt, uncles and cousins even made it out! It was fun to see everybody again, even for just a couple hours. Out cheering section even had signs made. I think my favorite was my little cousin's sign that said "#3 is related to me!" with hearts all around it. Justin and Benjamin both happen to wear number three.
Little Ben's team (CBC) beat Justin's team (UFV) in just three sets (best of five). I was a little disappointed that the game didn't go longer, but it was fun to see my old school win.
It was strange to be at CBC again. There were a few familiar faces, but most of the students are new. I guess it has been three years since I've been there. A part of me really missed being there - in a tight knit community where everyone knows your name.
Anyway. I came home the next morning,. A very short trip, but a fun one none-the-less.
