So...I've been frightfully delinquent in updating my posts...isn't that a common affliction for bloggers?

I love reading blogs, especially the slightly personal ones becasue it seems like you're peering into someone's secret life. It's very voyeuristic. But it's hard to find a balance between too much information and a nice peep into a lifestyle. How people live their lives is incredibly fascinating to me. Especially the mundane detals like how much toothpaste they put on their toothbrushes, morning routines, or the simples things that people need/do to get through the day. the everyday things are what makes life worth living.

Anways, after that diatribe...I digress...

In an effort to update my blog to try and post more regularly I'll share a few special and everyday photos from the past few months...whaddya say?

I was delightfully surprised to find out that on the Monroe Catholic Rams football team there's a girl kicker. Primarily a soccer player, Christin Davis is a first year football player. At 4-foot-10 she's about a foot and 100 pound less than most of the players but she gets up there with the boys anyway. For Monroe's game against the Valdez Buccaneer's last Saturday she put on her mascara and painted her nails Monroe yellow to punt and make those extra-point kicks that led to their 61-14 victory against home team Bucs.

And she's not the only girl varsity football player in Alaska. There's another girl on Eielson's team and apparently in North Pole.

Check this rad article about these girls from the Fairbanks Daily-News Miner

In the Anchorage School District they have girls' flag football which seems super cool. Wish they had that when I was at Chugiak High.
