Flag football

KK decided to play flag football with Blakely. She didn't want to be on a co-ed team so she had to "play up" to play in the all girls league. There were plenty of girls KK's age so I don't exactly know why they just don't lower the age but hopefully in a few years they will have a lot more girls so they can have at least 2 girl leagues. It was a bit crazy to see 3rd graders playing with/against 8th graders. That's probably why they they have the age limit so it isn't such a big age gap! 

Blakely was the main QB for her team so most of the videos of her are her throwing or passing to other teammates. KK played mostly defense but she occasionally got to play offense.  

Haha! Apparently Blakely mixed up the play. KK wasn't the person who was supposed to get the ball so she was so confused and hesitated!

I was sad that I missed over half of their games this spring season. I missed one because I went to Nathan's sister's baby shower. I missed another because Nathan was running a marathon in Ogden (they added this game last minute). Then we all missed the last two tournament games because we went to Puerto Rico. Their team ended up getting 2nd place even though they were undefeated in regular play. I wonder if they lost because Blakely and KK weren't there. Oops! I felt so bad about them not being there, especially since Blakely was their main QB but I feel like it was poor planning on the leagues part. Fall season they played the championship game mid week (I can't remember if it was Wednesday or Thursday) at night. School got out on a Thursday so I assumed that the championship game would happen before school got out for the summer. They ended up having the games two days after school got out! Not only that, but it was also Memorial weekend!?! Who does that?!? Anyways out flight for Puerto Rico left early Friday morning so the girls missed out. Their team either lost by 1 or 3 points!

The girls had a blast! I'm curious to see what KK decides to do in the Fall...flag football, soccer, dance, tumbling? It will be interesting to find out!
