The Aches and Pains of Broomball

More Photos

Broomball was a the most fun and the most dangerous it has ever been before. There were some pretty crazy people too. Dan Hutchinson, from JU, played bare foot on the ice! Brianna, the Minnesotan, scored a record 8 goals leading her team, The Fighting Lawn Chairs, to a stompin' win for the title belt. The Hurricane Ditkas, led by Crazy Ben and Big Texas, had a disappointing night as they lost in overtime in a relay race. Justen said, "That's (relays) not broomball man! We got robbed!" Ben made no comment. The Fighting Lawn Chairs spilled their blood to gain the victory-literally. My brother, Ryan, had a bad fall straight on his head, and I had to rush him straight to the emergency room. He is fine...Just a few stitches. But that is not the end of the story. My wife fell on her head too. She woke up the following morning feeling rather dizzy and nauseas. So I took her to the doctor, and we found out they she had a concussion. She is fine now. I did not sleep much earlier this week. Strangely, I have been dreaming about people slamming their heads against the ice. I'm sleeping now. I considered selling all the broomsticks. We'll just wear helmets and pads next time. Well...until next season long live The Fighting Lawn Chairs! -they don't fold easily.

The other ones are with my friends at a tailgate before a football game. The last one is with me and this guy named matt who went to Georgetown and is not at the Bush School.

Broomball September 22

If you have never played broomball then you do not know the joys in life that you have missed. I met with Chris Perrin today at Chick-fil-a, and he told me that he has never played broomball! If anyone knows Chris they know that he is going to be amazing at broomball. Kevin Singleton nicknamed him "Spiderman" for his "Spiderman" skills. Who wants to play Spiderman on the ice? I didn't think sooo! From experience, bring gloves and socks... Rachel got really cold last year. Invite as many people as you want, and don't forget to start doing push-ups, sit-ups and sprints every night before you go to sleep!

I am one of the most competitive people God has ever made. I love competition baby! Basketball, badminton, baseball, soccer, football, running, ping pong, pool, tennis, golf, paintball, airsoft, swimming, running, biking, triathlons, band, debate, eating, and broomball!!! Last year I was injured and did not get to show my skills; so I watched as people gave their hearts, lungs, and teeth for the win. There were heroes made last year. People like Ethan the Soccer Player, Justen the Who is He Womack, Wayne Nassis the light footed, and Caly the tank Thurman. I have never seen so much weird, competitive fun in all my life. I look forward to seeing you at the games!!!

2 Weeks into Resolution in the fall

Friends and Fun

(Picture from the Cookout in the Summer). This picture reminded me of all the amazing people at Resolution and all the friends God has blessed Rach and me with. My dad always use to tell my brother and me that one of the greatest beauties of the local church was the relationships. I have got to experience the beauty for myself. I was reading in I John the other day and I came across the scripture where John says, "No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us." God showed me that if I love other people and they in turn love others more that God will live inside of us. I also believe that each person reflects a different part of God's glory. For instance, one guy may reflect God's might while a girl may reflect God's faithfulness. Not that we shouldn't try to reflect all of who God is, but we all reflect different parts of the beauty of the Lord at different times. Therefore, when we love people, and they inturn love God and other people the world sees a fuller and clearer picture of our Jesus. Your all awesome!!! Thanks for being my friends.
