Move It: Kick Ball!
Yes, I said kick ball!!! We had a football-less Sunday (well, unless you consider the Pro Bowl football worth watching) so we had to find something to do. My nephew, Chris, suggested kick ball at the park up the street. So, we changed into our kick ball clothes (no such thing-just comfy clothes), dug out an old soccer ball, put Buddy on the leash and walked up to Montrose Park.
The logical division for teams: yep, Muffin Topz vs. Double Chinz! Each team had two members on reserve so it was 4 v. 4, opposite foot kicking, two strikes/fouls and three outs. Highlights: Richard whiffing his first “pitch” (see the picture below and notice where he is and where the ball is), Sean so delicately (not so much) dribbling his first pitch foul, Christopher diving defensively and striking out offensively…hmmm, they are all on the Double Chinz-I guess I’m a little biased. The Muffin Topz had their outstanding moments too (maybe too many to mention): Ippy and Steph are really good and Cory and I are amusing to watch…we’ll leave it at that.
We made it six innings…final score 9-6 Double Chinz. BUT, not to be outdone, after our first week, the Muffin Topz are leading in the Biggest Loser competition-down 1.51% (Double Chinz-down 1.21%). Now, in all fairness, it is only the first week and, while everyone seemed to have an “overabundance” of clothes on while weighing in last week, there was substantially less clothes at the weigh-in this week. I believe that next week will be a better indication of the standings…don’t get over-confident Muffin Topz! Keep working!
