Who wouldn't enjoy spending their three day weekend in the great town of Greeley? It was freezing and smelled of fresh manure and slaughter houses. Thankfully, inside the Island Grove Facility, my favorite sport was being played by girls ages 12-18. This was the first time I have coached a 13 and under team at a three day tournament. The girls learned a lot and played so well! At the end of the three days of competition I left their physically exhausted and with little voice left. I also left there with my heart filled with joy about what these girls are accomplishing despite the obstacles in their lives. I love being a coach and could think of no place I would have rather been than in the gym with those girls. Okay well maybe in Hawaii with Nicole or Australia with Amy!!! I miss you guys!

HOORAY!!! I am so excited for your blog. Now if I can't talk to you I can read about what you are doing. (As if you have time to be updating your blog, lol) Congrats on a successful tournament. Go DPR
I second that excitement! Yeah for blogs! I can just picture you there in that huge gymnasium w/ your 7th graders! Can you believe I've never made it out to Greeley since moving to CO? Well, maybe you can:). Love you, Katie!
