2010 has started out to be as busy as 2009 ended. Both girls went back to school without a hitch, basketball is in full swing for both of them, dance started back up, etc.
The weather has been extremely bitter so far this year. We have woken up several mornings to beautiful trees covered in frozen fog. These pictures don't do the trees justice but you get the idea.
Emily had her first basketball game yesterday. The team has only had 2-3 practices so we didn't know how the girls would do in a "real" game atmosphere. Out of 8 girls, only 3 have ever played BB. For the most part they pulled together and played a little better than expected. As the season goes on, the girls will get more familiar with the flow of the game and will improve.
They lost the game 20-10. Emily shot more than ever and scored two baskets! I thought it was cute because all the other girls would always look for Em so they could throw her the ball. I think they look up to her since she has played before (only one rec season) and because she is tall.
I am anxious to see how the season progresses and how Em' skills progress throughout the season!
I would like to add I LOVE the new Blogger and the ease of uploading and placing pictures on my blog. I do not love that there is no spell check. I will apologize now for all my spelling and grammatical errors!
You know how you say you thought you commented on my blog and then it's not there? I feel the same way about yours. What the heck is happening? I know I wrote about this post!
ReplyDeleteYour pictures remind me so much of my life currently. We spend the weekends at basketball and our trees look like that weekly! This week it got super thick and looked like everything was fuzzy. It was weird. Then there was tons of fog (which is why no pics from me....the fog messed them all up).
Wish we lived closer so we could hang out all the time and enjoy our similiar lives. Miss you, girl.
