Girls & Sports

Well, Nikki has decided she loves to run and wants to join cross country when she's old enough. That is along with baseball, soccer, Girl Scouts, cheerleading, etc. They went from never doing anything to wanting to do EVERYTHING!! We allow them to do any extra curricular activity they want to try as long as their grades stay up and as long as there is enough time in the day. But, with every sport comes registration fees, things you have to buy (uniforms, shoes, etc.), fundraisers, pictures and anything else they can think of to cause parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc. to spend money. Everyone who knew me as a teenager knew that the last thing I wanted to be involved in is sports. Now, my daughters are really into sports. Several times they've said "we should've played football instead of cheerleading, it would be more fun." Girls are so much fun!!
