girls and football

Have I ever told you how awesome my baby sister is? Well she is, I mean she is really pretty amazing. My 13 year old sister Alysia is one of two girls on her middle school football team. When she was three years old she was already cooler than me so I wasn't surprised on Weds when my family and I went to watch her first game to see her confidently standing with her team waiting to get put into the game. So excited to keep watching her grow into an amazing woman.

My other brothers and sisters took advantage of large grassy hill that we gathered on to watch the game by rolling down it and racing eachother back up to where my mother, myself, and my stepfather sat. Sometimes I look around and I realize that almost my whole lives right down the road, I realize we are all healthy, and we all love each other...a lot.

How was your week? My job is sweetly paying for me to go to real estate school, which I started yesterday. I will be in the class for about a month and then I will be a licensed real estate agent, pretty cool. I never thought this was the career I would have, but if I had to have full time job it would be this one.

besitos,

That is SO amazing!!!
She looks like she is having such a fun time. I wish they had stuff like this for when I was 13, because I adored football so much that I was the only girl in an intramural football recess game team in middle school (until a girl joined at the end because she thought it would get the guys' attention. . .which was not why I played).
You must be so proud of her!!!

Your sister is pretty awesome and brave to be playing with the boys! Please tell her she has another fan over here =) I love that things like this are possible nowadays.
So glad to hear you are enjoying the family and that maybe things are going a little better in that department. It is very inspiring that you are able to juggle everything so well in addition to spreading your creativity and sharing your happy moments with us.
Hope you have a relaxing and fulfilling weekend. Besitos!

Awesome your company's paying for that!! & so awesome of your little sis- way to go girls! I was always one of the few girls on flag football growing up but by middle school decided I'd prefer not to be tackled and was fully obsessed with basketball by then haha. Your family sounds amazingly close, both physically but most important, emotionally. you are very fortunate! enjoy your weekend lady!
