Basketball 2013

Basketball season has begun in the Bradley home and that means we are busy, busy, busy.  Rory is over Wellington Rec, so we had to put teams together and try to come up with a schedule that makes everyone happy.  I've realized no matter what you do, people are going to complain and you will never make everyone happy, but we did the best we could.

Our little Kadee Jo decided she wanted to play this year so we put her on a team in Wellington and also signed her up for the instructional basketball through Carbon Rec.  She has really enjoyed it and has done really well.  She has made a few shots and loves practicing with Connor and her dad.  I'm impressed with how quickly she has caught on and have to smile every time she runs down the court, because she runs with her tongue out.  She is concentrating so hard, she doesn't even realize she's doing it, but it is so darn cute.

Connor is still a basketball stud.  His first game he was getting so mad at the ref (grandpa Derk) for not calling fouls.  We had to remind him that he is playing with second graders, not in the NBA.  His best friend Chet is on the team, so they have a hard time sharing the ball.  Rory is the coach and is constantly reminding them to pass the ball to their other teammates.  He LOVES basketball and works really hard.  He has made several shots and rebounds and continues to excel.      

The season has just begun, but we have really enjoyed it and for Rory and I, there is nothing better than watching your kids develop their talents.
