Another Week

Another week has passed and a bunch of things going on in the wide world of kids sports at my house. Katy's team the Sharks had a tough loss. We just couldn't make a basket. We took more shots then the other team, most of them really close, we just couldn't make any. Poor Katy struggled to get into the flow. She's getting better but had a really tough game. I hope that she gets better soon as I'm afraid she may get frustrated and not want to play anymore. She's pretty good but just really learning the game. Playing with the boys will be good for her but is very frustrating at first I think. Keep practicing and her getting more confidence is important. Her attitude is good so hopefully that will help.

Drew and Sky's team the Sting won again. Not the best game, like the Sharks we just missed a bunch of "bunnies" that will hurt us against a tougher team. More practice. Skylar played this week since he's caste free finally. He did really well in limited time in. He ran the point while he was in and actually made basket. I was happy that he was so aggressive. He's not scared at all eventough he's the youngest kid on our team. He got right in there and fought for eveything. I enjoyed having him back on the court. He gets upset with losing and not getting in the game as much as the older boys I can tell, but I understand that and would want it any other way. Drew did well too. I don't want diminish his role, but he's one of the best players and leads our team. It's just that he did what he does and sometimes I forget or just take him for granted. He's really working on his jumping ability and wants to be able to play HS ball next year. He should be able to but he's afraid to get left behind. He scored a bunch and pretty much won it for us with his shooting and passing along with Carter and Semone. However he did get into a staring contest with the Ref. That ref is dumby though and has no idea how to ref youth games. He's so inconsistant. I know it's a hard job but my gosh... I still benched Drew for a while because of it though.

Vance is starting running again after a couple weeks off between CC and track. He just ran 8 miles yesterday to ease back into it. He's not as excited about track as he was CC but will run it anyway I guess. Marly's basketball cheer season is in full swing and I think she cheers everynight but one this week. She's busy.

Next up is another Saturday of fun. 3 pm for Katy and 5 pm for Sky and Drew. BYU plays their bowl game at noon so we'll get to see some of it. I haven't seen BYU football even once this year. Very strange. So I'm glad at least I can watch some.
