Dance & Flag Football








One of the best things about having both sons and daughters is that your weekends are filled with a little of 'girly girl' and some of the '110% boy' activities. That was this last weekend for us. We started it with Beck's flag football game and then went over to Madalyn's debut of her character routine as Sharpay Evans to Fabulous. Beck is double sporting it right now with flag football and a couple of weeks of overlap for Fall Ball coach pitch. We really wanting to get him some practice with coach pitch before the Spring and Jeff got volunteered to coach the team. They are incredibly unorganized and about to make me crazy, but we're trying to remember that it's about the boys and not the scatterbrains that don't do what they say they're going to do.
Madalyn really pushed this year for her first solo. She's been dancing for 7 years and this is her third year on team. I'm so proud of her and her desire to get up there and own the stage. She's such an amazing girl and it's fun to be there cheering her on. She debuted it at Firefest without it being finished and was fantastic. I'm sure when it's totally done in the Spring for competition (and on a stage instead of in the grass) it will be even more fun.
