Playing bas-ket-ball

We are into week 2 for Mr. Luke and his Upward basketball. Have I gotten any pictures of little boy wonder, you might ask??

Well, no!!

But he is having the time of his life!! On any given day during the week, he will just randomly say, "Three more days!!" And, of course, we know that means 3 more days until his basketball game!!

Interestingly enough, Saturday morning is now the only day that he has NO trouble getting up at all!! Even more interesting is that our games are at either 8 or 9 AM, which is a little early for my taste on Saturdays!!

Anyway, he's loving playing ball and we're loving watching him!! And I'm fortunate enough to be coaching his team...five other little basketballers!!

Pictures...maybe next week??!!

Oh yeah...Alex is playing too!! He's been playing since the middle of December. He's not as cute, but he's fun to watch too!! Today, he played some great defense and put up a couple of lay-ups (maybe 3) that he stole and sunk a couple of 3's! Another big difference between he and Luke is he smells really bad when he's done!! All in fun, though!!

I really enjoy basketball season much more than baseball. The positives?? They're inside and the games last an hour!!

Peyton had his first UPWARDS game this weekend. And considering they have only had one practice due to our bad weather and this is his first time playing B-Ball, he wasn't too bad. He played Defeanse on everybody (including his own team mates!) And he jumped around like one of the cheerleaders. All and all it was very entertaining!
I'm looking forward to watching his skills grow through the season.
