The basketball part comes from Zach. He started Jr Jazz basketball on Thursday. It was his first game and he did excellent! The first 20 minutes of the hour they have practice and the next 40 minutes they have their game. He was so excited, he could hardly wait until they got going! This is our little #22 - isn't he cute?
We got there early so we could get good seats, so Jeremiah went out and helped him shoot a bit. He was making quite a few baskets!
When his coach got there, they had a quick practice of passing, dribbling, and shooting. After the practice, they huddled up and got ready to start the game.
They do a lot of really great things for the little kids, one of the things they do that I love is that they give them wristbands to wear (5 different colors, 1 set for each team) so that they know which person they are supposed to be guarding (they both will be wearing the same color wristband) all the time. Zach just loved his and couldn't get over how neat it was to be wearing it.
Watching the game was so much fun! Zach was really a little runner - he was back and forth on that court so fast! He did great guarding his guy and passing the ball.
He also shot quite a few baskets.
Unfortunately, I didn't have the camera ready when he actually made it, but he did make at least 3 or 4 baskets. He did so great and we all can't wait until next Thursday to watch him play again!
Now the pigtails part of this post obviously has to do with Hailey. She got a Dora doll from her Nana and Papa in California and this morning she decided that we needed to do Dora's hair. She has pigtails, so we just fixed them up a bit and changed her outfit. Later, it was time to do Hailey's hair, so we decided to do pigtails just like Dora.
I can't believe how long her hair is getting. She's so cute and the pigtails really fit her personality! We of course had to take a picture of the two twinners together.
Are they cute or what???
