Sweden floor hockey!

i must apologize for being absent in this past week, but i have my reasons. i went to Sweden last weekend, to participate in a floor hockey tournament. its called "Gothia cup". it takes place in Gothenburg, and teams from Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, czech ( not sure on spelling) republic and Germany come to play. sweden and czech dominated, but it was still fun. in my defense, our team has only played for a year. most of the teams have played 6 times longer than that. anyway, we lost 4/4. 1st game: 1-4. 2nd game: 1-6. 3rd game: 0-12. 4th game: 0-13. it was very difficult. my position is goalie or defense. i was goalie in the 2nd and 3rd game. but it was very fun and i learned a lot.


us putting our beds together and getting ready to live there for the next 72 hours.


eating breakfast, accidentally looked straight at the camera

i want to wish calvin a happy birthday, since i missed it, so happy birthday :)

great that posting is becoming a routine!


Next post suggestion: random photo in your phone. someone picks a number from 1- how many photos you have, then you have to explain it (sort of like a fun party game) i have 154 pics in my phone, you may pick the number.  and i will pick yours. 35.

Very cool pictures and what an awesome, exciting event!! I miss going on trips/competitions like this, it kind of disappears when you get older (unless you are a professional). Maybe I can facilitate something. Anyway- questions:
field hockey= hockey with no ice?
how did you form/join this team? through school?
why has your team only played for a year?

Okay, photo 35 I will probably post tomorrow I am running fantastically late today!
