Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Finally Friday….the holiday fun is wearing us out!
Hope you have a restful weekend!
Around here lately…
Birthday party for Spencer on Saturday…
and birthday party at the same place for Maxwell on Sunday!
I got to go make a gingerbread house at school with Maxwell…
and love seeing him read more and more every day!
I walked in the kitchen to find this one sneaking a bite of that candy house! Stinker!
PJ day at school for Baby girl…
and a visit with Mrs. Claus!
Good times!
Y’all…I can’t handle this. I put pigtails in Samantha’s hair for the first time and was just dying. So cute and so funny!
Then we added a bow!
Dying. I love her so much.
My cutie tootie pigtail wearing baby girl!! 😍
Maxwell had his first basketball game on Saturday and it was definitely entertaining! There are only 7 people on his team and only 5 showed up for the game so that meant our 5 superstars had to play the whole game. They did great and were red-cheeked by the end!
Basketball at this age is funny – they try to make it all fair and nice and the defense isn’t supposed to actually “steal” the ball. Ha! They defensive players are supposed to get on the X’s in their zone defense and stay there. They can get the ball if it comes into the box or off of a rebound. On offense, they really want one kid to dribble down and pass it off to another player who takes a shot.
The first quarter was pretty comical because the kids really didn’t know what they were doing. But, after that they figured it out a bit and had things rolling. Maxwell did great – he dribbled great, hustled after the ball, went in there to fight for rebounds and even made two baskets!! Such a baller!! 🙂
Most importantly, Maxwell had fun. After the game he asked if we could go buy a basketball and even went to the Y on Sunday with Robert to practice. I love this kid!
Their team name? The Bucks. Go Bucks Go!
