Adventures in basketball


Let me start by saying this...we are not a particularly sports oriented family. Other than our interest in college football, (me on God's team, Brock on the devil's team) sports isn't something of great importance in our home. It's not that we don't LIKE sports, we do, it's just not super high on our list of priorities. So when Sam expressed interest in playing girls basketball this year...we were surprised. Excited for her to try something new, but surprised.



Yesterday was her first "official " game. She was pretty nervous. Actually...to be truthful...she was WAY SUPER-DEE-DUPER nervous. She was SO nervous that she "brought her food up for a swim in the toilet" three or four times the night before her game. (poor thing) Needless to say, she was a little hesitant when we walked in the gym doors yesterday. 



I am pleased to report that we LOVE basketball now! She is a great little hustler. She can run up and down that court like NOBODY'S BUSINESS! (Not really sure yet if she understands WHY she is running up and down the court, but she is sure having fun doing it!)
