Go Pink!

A friend convinced me to join a powder puff football team which plays to raise awareness for breast cancer.  Miles agreed to help coach as well.  Our rivals play for domestic abuse awareness, and it is the pink vs purple annual game.  This isn't just a show-up-and-play kind of powder puff game.  We practiced for a couple of months, and it was serious business.  At one point I thought I would need to have my wedding band cut off because my finger was so swollen.  I wrecked my shoulder and it is just finally feeling better almost two months later.  We had pages and pages of plays to learn and even had fancy wristbands with receiver routes on them.  I had been warned that the game would be rough, and they weren't kidding.  We should have been in full pads and helmets!  I got to know a bunch a great ladies, but I think I will just watch next year. 
We gathered on the night before the game for a Honk-and-Wave.

Game Day!
Our great coaches!

After the game pizza and beers.
