Emily's first game

Today was Emily's first basketball game, EVER! Emily woke up very nervous with pregame jitters.

I could tell she was still nervous during warm ups but I knew she would be ok.

Emily did the jump ball (not sure of the official terminology) and wasn't sure what to do as they hadn't practiced it in practice. Emily made many rebounds and her VERY FIRST BASKET EVER was the result of one of the rebounds!!!! The look on her face was priceless. From that moment on it was game on!

I didn't get many good pictures as I was busy watching the game, which is so not like me!


Jump Ball, Jump Ball, get up off your feet!

First foul shot.

Final score. The time was reset before I could snap the picture. BTW, we won!!!

  2. We went to lunch at Friendly's with the coach (friends of ours) and Emily spent the day at their house playing Rock Band and with American Girl Dolls!
