16 and 17: 365

Finally, yesterday I was able to see Gabe practice basketball. All other times I was helping kids with homework or something was going on. And then the game on Saturday we were split up between two kids and two games.

I can't say how much I love the Upwards program. They learn about the sport and also have a biblical lesson taught...every week! AND, the best part of it is, the kids love it! How cool is that? And then, the games are great. They start them off with all kids having their names announced and running thru a tunnel with cool music playing and we all give them high fives. And from a fitness side of things, the games are fast paced. They are running the entire time. This has been an excellent experience, and we are just starting!


Cole and Jude were a little bored at practice. So they played a little ball with each other whenever they got the chance. But I made them clear out if anyone needed back on the court.


And a little sword fighting to round the day off nicely.

Not a lot going on today. Other than some insane January weather. Warmer temperatures brought in rain, we even had thunder! Down south they had a Tornado! Crazy! And then, comes the insane winds all day. Followed with hail, and plummeting temperatures. Weird.

So today's picture is of Cole and Jude as they were heading off to school. And of Buddy chillaxin' in his bed.
