Get your head in the game!

Ok, so my whole life I don’t think I’ve had more than an ounce of school spirit. No matter what school I happened to be going to at the time, I had the exact same attitude: meh. However, this past Friday I found out that when it comes to Wattadeua Community School I actually have spirit. Weird right? My older kids had this big sports competition at one of the other schools and I got to go watch. The school we were playing against was super intimidating, looking like Chiang Mai’s version of East High in their red and white custom jerseys. My kids were definitely the underdogs, wearing their PE uniforms and I think feeling a little like District 5 versus the hawks. (Mighty Ducks reference what what!) The thing was my school totally dominated! Take that Thai Troy Bolton. haha They did awesome! I felt a little like a proud parent which was kind of weird. It's crazy how attached I've gotten in just a few months. It was so fun to see them play. They worked really hard and it payed off. My kids are the best. GO WATTADEUA!!! J

Takraw! Coolest sport ever! Basically soccer meets volleyball meets ninja awesomeness. Awwyeah!

I love these kids. I’m going to miss them.

Suwid! He did so good! This little boy has a pretty hard time with English so seeing him work hard and succeed was seriously awesome.

The kids were so proud to be a part of their school, and I was too. :)

  1. I love the pictures! That would have been an interesting game to watch. I've never even heard of takraw. I hope you continue to enjoy your time in Thailand.
