Basketball

This year, I decided to be Kaley's basketball coach.  I never coached before, but thought it sounded like fun!  Basketball is probably the only sport I feel like I know enough about and feel confident enough to coach it.  The first game, I was totally intimidated by the other mom coach.  She came with her hair slicked back, in work out pants and was all business.  I came all showered and in jeans with a cute sweater on.  I DID put tennis shoes on!  ;)  So, we have a practice every Thursday and a game every Saturday.  I have become more sure of myself as a coach as the weeks go on.  I am definitely not the most competitive out there, but I think my girls are learning the rules of the game and we do have fun!  I just laugh because I am more the flowers and sunshine kind of coach.  I praise a lot and skip up and down the court with them after they make baskets.  It is really fun to be with this age of girls!  









 Me and my cute team.  
 The things we do for our kids!  ;)  I would do anything for this girl!  She really loves basketball, and wants me to coach next year too.  
 Thomas is also doing basketball this year.  He is doing Little Hoopsters.  They do drills for the first 30 minutes, then they play a game.  He is lucky enough to have his buddy Justice on his team this year.  These two are pretty fun to watch.  We call them the "blonde bombers."
