Basketball Time



Well here goes another season of basketball. And we can already see a big improvement over last year. William didn't even know how to dribble the ball last season. Not that he didn't think he could.
Well after a whole year of basketball camp he came out of the starting gate and made the first basket of the season. That only seems right since he made the last basket of last season (his first and only basket of last season). Now we need to wait and see if he can continue his progress this year. His team isn't the best but they do have alot of spirit. What other team would keep trying if they were down 2 to 14. But that is what they did this week. That was the score at the end of the first quarter. Now you would think that the game would just keep going like that. But they held there own and the final score was only 6 to 16. Or something like that. I asked William after the game if he had fun and it is always a resounding Yes.
This week William has a test he is taking and will not be at the game . So we get one week off of sitting and cheering for the..... I still don't know what their team name is? I really need to remember to ask Will what it is.

Isn't it fun to watch the kids improve? This is Matthew's first year in Basketball. He was not the star of the game that is for sure. Through out the season he has been shooting hoops in our driveway ALOT and the last couple of games have been really good! We only have 1 game left, but he's already looking forawrd to next year because of his improvement.
