Wow! What a great couple weeks of fun and VOLLEYBALL that we have had. It started a few weeks ago, Dec. 1st when my mom called and said she had a ticket for me to fly to Seattle to see Chelsea play at #6 Washington for NCAA finals. There was only one problem, I was suppose to do so many things that weekend for our ward activities. I told my mom I probably couldn't go and then 10 mins. later I called her back and said, "I'm coming!" I couldn't miss it, and I got subs to cover the things I had to do. I dropped it all and left the next morning at 7:00 am with Noah and we had such a blast. BYU won Friday night and then Washington was Saturday and they beat them too! That was one of the best games I have ever seen. Thank you mom, I had so much fun with you. The miracle of it all was that the Sweet Sixteen region they were in was at PENN STATE for the next weekend. So Mom, Dad, Evonne and Justin (Chelsea's boyfriend) headed over here 4 days later. Friday, we all headed up in the snow to Penn State. Our friends the Milmonts and Chaffee's also came to scream with us! We are glad they drove 3 long hours to support BYU! BYU played so good Friday night and beat Middle Tennessee to make it to the Final 8! Chelsea was amazing and I'm not going to be humble about it, she is so flippin' good! We all camped out at the hotel that night and prepared mentally (ha!) for the big PENN STATE game on Saturday. We knew it would be a hard one to beat them (the best in the nation) and it was a hard loss. Chelsea gave it everything she had and it was hard to see her career at BYU end, but.... she has accomplished so much and we are so proud of her! She received All American again this year! I love you sis and I'm proud of you! You are invited to play on my city team next year........ ha!

I have goosebumps just imagining I'm there with you. I am so glad you dropped everything to go and watch her. You would have hated yourself if you didn't go. Joey and I had a blast watching her play at TCU. Way to go Chels!!!
Tom and I watched part of the finals on t.v. yesterday and were wondering how BYU fared. Thanks for keeping us posted. What an amazing experience to play on such a great team. Way to go Chelsea.
