More basketball

I love that my kids love playing sports. Today Ashley started her season of basketball. She was placed on a team from a different elementary school. I am always amazed at how out going she is compared to her sisters. She only knows one person on the team and it doesn't phase her at all. I love seeing how each of my girls are so different and each have their own individual thing to offer to the world.
Ashley may not be as tall as her sisters were at her age but she does not let that hold her back. I love the way she jumps right in and doesn't let anything hold her back. She is really a lot of fun to watch on the court.

I can't wait to see what this season will bring for Ashley.

Pink out game

Tonight was the pink out game at Meridian high school. This is a pretty big game so the crowds were big. A few of Madison's friends were in the crowd so she was pumped up. She played a great two quarters in the Frosh game and then played a full two quarters in the JV game. Tonight was the most that she has played in a JV game. She was on fire. I think volleyball has really helped her game. She was jumping and rejecting the ball over and over tonight. It is fun to see her blossom on this JV team.

This was a fun game. The bigger crowd was great and I think really pumped the girls up. It was also fun to see the gym all decked out in pink.

It was a fun game they ended up winning by 1 point in overtime.

Father son BSU game

BSU played Utah State tonight so Kevin invited his dad to come up and go to the game with him. We are really having fun with these season tickets.

Kevin and Bob had a good time. Ashely is excited because it is her turn next.

More Basketball

As Madison basketball season is coming to an end, Allison and Ashley's are starting up. Today was Allison's season opener was a Jamboree.

It was fun watching her play. Allison's coach is the Frosh high school coach and after tryouts he had Allison come and practice with his team at the high school. It was fun seeing how much she has learned from the high school girls. I am excited for this season and to see how Allison has developed as a player.

Madison really enjoyed Jared her Frosh coach and he really did a lot for her. Since he is coaching Allison he thought it might be fun to have Madison help out and be an assistant coach with his older daughter.

It will be fun to watch her work with the girls. I think that it will help with her game to see the game through a coaches eyes. I am excited to see how the season goes with the girls.

Date night

We came into some season tickets for the boys basketball at BSU. Tonight Kevin and I headed down to the game. It is different watching boys play. It is funny that it the same game but boys and girls play it so differently. It was fun watching them play.

Madison happened to be invited by Lydia the same night. She was right across from us. Once they stood up we found her right away.

It was a lot of fun. We might have to look into getting our own season tickets.

Feeling better

Madison has recovered from being sick. Tonight she had a game against Mountain View. She is excited to be feeling better so that she can play officially as a JV player. It was fun watching her play. I can't wait to see how she grows on this team. JV players are definitely different from the players on the Frosh team. The game tonight was great and the girls fought hard.

When the game was over Madison had to change quickly and join the pep band for the varsity game. She had enjoyed playing in the pep band but it has got exhausting for her to play in a game and then play in the band back to back.

New Uniform

Tonight Madison played in a new uniform. She has been moved from the Sophomore team to the JV team officially. She was so excited when she brought the uniform home from practice. She has worked so hard to be noticed by the coaches. I am impressed at all of her hard work and dedication. It has been fun to watch her grow and earn this spot on the JV team.

We were not sure that she should go to her game today because she had been up all night sick but she was not going to miss out on first time playing JV in a JV uniform. She wanted to show the JV coach that she was dedicated so there was no way to talk her out of going. She played a little in the Sophomore game. I was nervous that she wasn't up to playing but she did good. You could kind of tell she wasn't 100% so it was probably better that they did not need her the whole game.

The JV couch could see how tired she was so he decided it was better that he didn't play her. She understood and probably felt better that he wasn't going to play her. She was excited because the JV team won there first game and now say Madison is their good luck charm. She is so excited to be on the JV team and can't wait till the next game when she is 100% and can play with them.
