Weekly B-Ball Update

Lindsay played well again this week. She is really trying to learn the rules of the game. She is pretty aggressive on defense (as long as she doesn't have to actually touch the ball!) and has worked hard on her dribbling. She has come a long way since last year's "hair twirling" competitions with her teammates!

Kimberly's team won their game 31-23. She must have proven herself to the boys because they don't seem to mind passing to her anymore. She took some good shots that just refused to drop, but she also scored her share of points for the team. She is getting better every day and has shaken last years nickname "Foul Trouble".

Garrett's school team got beat 33-13, but now they know where their weaknesses are so hopefully they can improve before next week's game. His church team won 10-9 in another nail-biter and I realized that I am one of those embarrassing moms. When Garrett bumped heads with another boy and went down I really wanted to rush out on the court and make sure he was okay. I stood by the team bench with my hands in my pockets (and he was fine), but it wasn't easy. Garrett has really matured on the court and he is realizing that his big sister (Kimberly) is actually good for something!
