Basketball

The two oldest boys are playing basketball and Big J. had his first game tonight. He did great, so much more confident than last year. In the first quarter he got a basket and throughout the game he got the ball and got a chance to put up a couple more shots. We had a good time as family watching the game tonight but next week there are three games so that will be busy. Little J. does Basketball Camps on Saturdays. They work more on skills and learning the game and keeping it fun. He has been to two already and next time they'll break them into teams and scrimmage and teach the kids some basic game skills. Just wish it was a little warmer so they could go outside and practice in the backyard a little more.

Same old same old

Not much has been happening in our family. The kids went back to school last week and we are settling into our normal routine. Get ready for school, Kids go to school and Mom cleans the house, kids come home, snack time, homework time, chores, some Wii, then dinner, get ready for bed, sleep, do it all again. I was thinking there wasn't much to write but look at the previous post for that answer. Anyway my Dad had his hip surgery and seems to be doing pretty good. I was able to go visit him at home yesterday. Also, Big J. started basketball and is enjoying it. Games will start in a couple weeks. Little J. will also be doing basketball camps on Saturday mornings beginning this weekend. So I guess really I should be glad things are monotonous right now because once games and camp starts we'll be busy again. Tim has made running a priority and I'm enjoying my Wii Fit so we can both aim at being healthier. I started walking again with my friend this week. It's hit and miss because we both take the babies and often it's just too cold to have them out there for an hour. Anyway, life is good.
