Yay for basketball! Ryan has been waiting for his chance to play basketball for some time now. We got him signed up and he was ready to go. At the first practice, Alex was suddenly very interested and regretful that he didn't want to sign up to play too. So, our very dutiful dad (Shawn) spoke to our team's great coach and got Alex on the team too! So, now we have basketball practices added into our busy schedule. But, the boys have been having a lot of fun. They had their first game last Saturday. Won't mention the actual score, but Ryan scored a few points and Alex said he had a lot of fun. I stole these pictures from my friend's blog and will post more as we have more games. Is it just me or does every parent secretly pray for a "professional athlete" in their family????? :o) I missed the game because we are in the midst of starting tax season, but Shawn said it was fun and that the boys did well. He said they worked up a sweat as it was full-court basketball. Plus, he also bought them (and taught them how to use) deodarant. . . .uhhhh - 7 yrs old and 9 yrs old? Must have really smelled like boy-sweat in the truck on the drive home! It should be a great season. Go Nuggets!!
