Basketball

This was our first year of basketball & we had so much fun! It made the first half of summer fly by as well! We had somewhere to be every Tuesday (2 places actually), Wednesday & Thursday. Little Man loved every minute of it. His team was really good too. His coach taught them organized plays and when they played together they were awesome. Unfortunately, there were some games where a certain 3 players never passed the ball, and Little Man never even got to touch it. Those games were particularly hard on Mom & Dad! He did score in a couple of different games though. He was so pumped!!

Squirts games were just too stinkin' funny! Watching 10 5-6 year olds trying to play bball just brightened your soul! They would just run down the quart holding the ball, or shoot on the wrong net. The first game that Squirt scored he turned and gave me 2 thumbs up, with the biggest smile on his face. He was on cloud nine. It was even better the last game when he got his very own trophy. He got it cause "He was the best player" His quote, not the coaches. His coach was so good and patient with the kids. The very first practice, when he asked the kids to do jumping jacks made me laugh out loud. Nobody knew what he was talking about!! The coach was probably at least 6'5". Squirt went upto his hip bone!
