For Mutual the other night the Young Women and the Young Men gathered to play a little flag football. Jordan was pretty excited to play even though she said, "Football is not my best sport but I am pretty good at it, of course." Who knew?! The girl jumped right in and Big Daddy and I stuck around to cheer her on. It was so much fun!! The pics aren't that great...I seriously need a new camera (are you reading this Santa Claus??). But hopefully you can look past the pics to the story behind them. I am also throwing in a few videos...they are all like 30 seconds each...and worth the peek and good for a giggle. Trust me, I am not just saying that cuz she is my kid (really, I'm not).
of course her eyes are closed...it's the stoooopid flash
on my camera, like I said I need a new one!
J and her friend Sammy waiting to be picked for a team
look how Sammy's little brother is disappearing in this picSpooooooOOOOOooooooky!!
of course she wore a silk headband to play football...after all...she is MY child AND a girlie girl!
Sammy pointing out who they are gonna take down first!
it started out a little bit scary (remember she is in PINK)
I mean REALLY can ya blame her?
look at the size of some of those boys...HUGE!
THEN after a few plays my girlJ was NOT intimidated...look at her go after this one!
flexing their muscles!!
BRING IT ON!!
here she is "looking alive"one more of J "running" she keeps her whole body upright...its hilarious!
i am sooooooo thankful that Jordan has such a great group of youth and fabulous leaders to do such fun things with. She loves it...even if it isn't her "best sport".

You have so much to look at and I love your good energy;)
A good mutual group can make a huge difference in the life of our kids. It sure did for me. This looks like a lot of fun!
What a fun activity. I love how she runs!
She is so sweet decked out in her pink! Our youth play mud football our @ one of our wrd members who have a ton of prperty! It gets prety wild! GOOOOO Jordan!
those videos are very cute...great job Jordan!!
wow...what a wonderful story and shots. and nice the videos
My PSF entry this week : in HERE. Hope you have time to visit . Thanks
That would have been my nightmare activity in Mutual. Even now, I dread it when my poor girls have to play sports (but I don't tell them that). I just lay low and hope no one wants me to participate. LOL! :) Jordan is a great sport! So fun to see her get in there and go for it!
How fun!! we always loved mutual!! Im glad she has such a great youth group, it really makes all the difference!!
Looks like lots of fun!
Oh man. That is spooky. How odd that the camera would do that to only him!
What a fun photo story. I'm impressed that she got out there. I would have looked so incredibly silly. Our youth kids convinced me to play basketball last week. It was just sad. I'm glad there aren't any pictures! Happy Friday!
Volleyball - yes. Flag Football - no. :) She was AWESOME to jump right in such an intimidating sport! Go J!!!
she survived!! Yeah for J!
oh my gosh. chuck runs the exact same way.
i mean aaron. I just came from a family member's blog...so I'm thinking in chuck mode still.
Look at her all decked out in pink! So cute, and that's good 'cause that makes it easy to spot her!
=0D
Go J! Fabulous little player she is!
What a fun leader they have! I loved playing flag football when I was a kid.....especially when boys were involved!
looks like a fun time.... i love jordan's sweatshirt!!!
Yeah, she's the best one on the field and she runs like the wind! Makes it look so effortless.
This kid's got it all: brains, brawn, and poise--and looking gorgeous doing it all! ( I love the purple silk headband)
Great PSF!
cute
Looks like they had a great time!
I'm proud of her for just trying even though she thinks it's not "her sport" Many kids wouldn't even try. I love how she just jumps right into things! Way to enjoy life J!
okay, so how fun does that look? thanks for sharing! i love her look of wanted to get in there, but not so sure...and the headband is priceless...she and my olivia must be kindered spirits...she's for all things shiny, and at the strangest times!
I can't wait until Sabryna is in YW! So.Much.Fun!
Looks like they had LOTS of fun. :) It's always good to be able to play the "boy" sports too.
thats so funny (: I love how she wore the silk headband to play football!!
