Upward Basketball

Will and Andrew are now playing Upward basketball. If you've never heard of Upward, it's a Christian organization for sports. Each practice and game, they break for devotions and prayer.
They have some pretty cool rules that maximize each kids chance to learn and play. I've been pretty impressed so far. This past Saturday was our first game. Each game starts with music, lights off, and an announcer announcing each child. They get to run out like it's an NBA game. It was pretty neat...I did have tears in my eyes!!


I think he liked hearing his name and all the cheering!

check out the defense

to the basket, Andrew

he's got his man covered!

I know they are going to get better and better but even more than that, I think they will have a positive experience! I'm sure I'll be posting more pictures!!


What Is It?

The boys got a present and were so excited about opening it. But once they started opening it, they realized more wrapped boxes were inside. After opening many boxes, they found a note.



Inside was a note was from Mickey Mouse. It said that they were going to get to see him later in the year. They were both pretty excited but even more excited after watching a video about Disney! We can't wait!!




Time with the Grandparents

We went down to Kentucky to celebrate a late Christmas. We had lots of fun together.

It was such a beautiful day we went out to play basketball. It was the boys first experience playing "PIG".
