Powderpuff


This has been homecoming week around here.  Traditionally, during homecoming week, the high school girls have the opportunity to play a flag football game.  They call it powderpuff.   This was Nicole's first year to participate and Ellea jumped right in as a freshman.  It was fun to watch.  And despite predictions of rain, we stayed warm and dry.  Gotta love that!



The teams are always Freshmen and Seniors versus Sophomores and juniors.  Ellea's Freshman/Senior team was about twice as big as Nicoles' Sophomore/Junior team.  That's a lot of black jerseys!


 Nicole's team scored one touchdown and that was all the points that made it on the scoreboard.  No injuries this year which was great.  It's not the safest sport.  Even if it is only flag football there still seems to be some tackling going on!


So much fun to cheer for both teams on the field.  Good job girls!  Can't wait for next year's rematch!
