Blog returning from the dead (again..)

After having had the blog (and my lack of upkeep) brought up at today's lovely baby shower I figured I may just as well write a short note welcoming anyone who may stumble in here. If you have not received an invitation to be an author on this wonderful blog, please, just shoot me an e-mail or call me and I will make sure you get said invitation.

Also, if anyone feels like kicking the ball around (and happens to read this in time) I will be torturing VA with some shooting and booting practices tomorrow at around 14:30 at the lovely (yeah right..) Parklawn field. We're going climbing afterwards too :). We will be doing these little practice session fairly regularly and, now that I have been reminded of my duties as a blogger, I will make sure to post short notes on here. However, I will not read the blog for you. That's all in your own hands :) :).

Back to the baby shower. Why was it lovely? Because it had lots of baby blue and pink? Beacuse we had lots cutsie games? Because we had a veeeery looong opening of gifts ceremony during which we all "ooohhh'd" and "aaaaahhhh'd" extensively? Or maybe because of the complete lack of any kind of alcoholic beverage???? OH NO!!! For the complete opposite reasons. We had beer, too much food, football, and doggies. We did indeed have games (or "A" game at least, Cranium... DO NOT ever ask Ryan to spell anything backwards :) ) and we did do the opening of gifts. We also did do artsie-fartsie projects in the form of onesies but the only thing that proved was that the Femmes do not do CUTE very well. We can do funny. We can do mildly insulting (or extremely insulting... whichever...). We can do annoying. But we are not very good at cute. And, that's a good thing :). BIG CONGRATULATIONS to the parents to be (be ready for the 6 months plus of no sleep... :) )!!!

Stay tuned for notes on Christmas party! I think we may have narrowed down the date(s) to December 15th or possibly December 8th. There will for sure be lots of drinks, lots of food, a couple of doggies, and US!! Personally I thought the gift exchange we did last year was so much fun it should be repeated. Let's see who manages to buy the most popular gift this year!! How many rounds did that six-pack of beer do before the rightful owner was decided?

Alright, update is done! Almost. I looked at the standings at WAWSL today and congrats to all Femmes on our Second place. We were the only team to take ANY point from the KT's. Good job everyone!!
