Valentine's Day Dodge Ball?!


What a fun date! We got together with 5 other couples for Valentine's Day and played Dodge Ball! Strange date idea, especially for V-Day, but ohhhh so fun! We ate dinner at the church - we all pitched in and made something and it was delicious. I made the oh-so-yummy Brownie Triffle from my sisters' recipe. Instead of putting it in a bowl, I made little individual servings with the clear plastic cups. Very cute (I should've taken a picture of them, they really were adorable). After dinner, we played Dodge Ball in the gym. We started out with our spouses, and then we mixed the teams up. I tried so hard to get Brad out, but never could do it. The boys were a little dangerous with the balls, so we made a rule that if they were going to throw at a girl, they had to use their left hand. It was hilarious to see them throw, but still, they could aim! After a while, the boys played BBall and the girls played a fun game of PIG. Remember the days in the summer at the neighbors bball hoop (before we had ours)? Playing Lightning and PIG? What fun, what fun! So our V-Day was super fun, but the next 2 days were something else! I haven't had sore muscles like that since high school. I'm not getting old, just out of shape! Or is it the other way around?! I don't know which is worse, or more humiliating to admit too :)

Cheetah Girl


Go Cheetahs! That's the name of Meagan's Jr. Jazz BBall team. I wonder who chose that name? . . . her team is made up of 2nd and 3rd grade girls. :) She has been so excited to play Jr. Jazz and now she's finally old enough. We love to watch her every week and she's really improving. She's such a funny girl - she even wanted wrist bands. We found some at Walmart, but the ones she wanted had NBA embroidered on them, not the cute pink or white ones! Go figure! When Meagan goes, she goes BIG! We love her enthusiasm! The pics are kinda blurry - I need to figure out how to use the sport function on my camera, but they're cute anyway!

This was my favorite - Meag looks so cute, all interested in the game! Brad was "substituting" for the coach this week.
