BASKETBALL

A new venture for us this year.

The 3 middle boys are playing basketball with the Upward program.
I had heard that it is fairly low key and practice just once a week, so figured we'd give it a shot.

Of course, its 45 minutes away and practice is from 7-9 PM and games are EVERY Saturday NIGHT!

whew.

We'll make it.

I was NOT expecting evening games.

They had all 3 boys on different teams with overlapping practices, but a friend pointed out that one of the boys had practice at a different location.  So, being that I cannot be at three different places at once, we moved one of the boys to another team.

So far, all is well.

Well, except for the fact that Grant cut his finger and had to get stitches and is missing practice and the first game already.   

One of the nice things about this program is that it is Christian based.

The head coach gathers everyone mid-way through practice and they read a Bible verse, do a brief meditation and pray.

Can't beat that!

Hope you have a great season boys!
