What We've Been Doing This Winter

I promised pictures to explain what we've been up to this past winter, so here they are. We were blessed to have the boys play basketball with a small country school in the area. We homeschool so they aren't able to play for our local public junior high, but the little country school was thrilled to have the 2 boys join them for the season. We enjoyed watching the boys play, but we were awfully glad to be done sitting on bleachers at the end of the season!

Here's our Big Boy Levi, he dominated at the center position against most teams...until he broke his foot in a game! He was side-lined for 4 weeks until the doctor cleared him for play. Levi was not very happy about this development at all, but it taught him great patience and he learned a lot about the game of basketball sitting on the bench watching and discussing it with the coaches. Overall, he would have much rather been playing the game though! LOL!

Jonah enjoys playing basketball and really plays with all his heart. He is the team encourager, always building up the other kids on the team, except when he's frustrated, then he gets a little chippy. This was his first year playing for the school and he adjusted well moving over from the city recreational league which he's too old for now. He'll continue to improve over the next couple seasons as his coordination catches up with his growth.
