Thank you so much for posting this blog!!! I have been checking this to see how you ladies are doing in NZ, and I have forwarded your blog on to the entire University of Minnesota Women's rugby team so that they can see how Kristy Lear is doing over there. Good luck with your last game this weekend ladies, and tell Kristy that her boyfriend (me) says hi and misses her. Minnesota and Wisconsin are cheering for you all! Keep blogging!
