Yesterday was a very long, but very worthwhile day..
and though I'm exhausted it was a wonderful experience.
See.. those are my girls.. all of them.. there in red and white..
It's my tackle football team.. they look good don't they? The photo was taken as we prepared to participate in the 124th annual st. patrick's day parade. Earlier we had been to a walkthrough at Philips Arena.. We were scheduled to play an innersquad scrimmage at halftime of the Georgia Force game... They are part of the AFL, which is a little different.. it's arena football on a 50 yard field.. half of what the girls are used to. But they looked awesome! It was so very cool to see them on the jumbotron! and to see them on the field and hear the crowd of about 15,000 cheering for them.. they are used to a crowd of about 1,000.. but this was definitely much more intense!
They did a great job, we were tremendously proud of them.. and hopefully we will get some folks to come out and see them play at their first home game..
