Ella and Francisco

As our friend John put it, “Look who’s rockin’ the Austin Winter League flyer!”

Ella and I are playing ultimate Frisbee on Sundays in December, January, and February. This is a fun league started by our good friend Gary who has incorporated many fun elements like food, beverages, and a weekly showcase game that everyone can watch while enjoying the food and the day. Last year’s theme for team names was Classic Rock and Roll. My team was called “Deep Purple Lays”. This year’s theme is the TV show “the Office”. I’m hoping for “Wrestle with Fear” or “So Shall I Plant my Seed in You” or “I Hope It’s Urine”.
