Basketball and Bowling

Morgan's 5th grade basketball team really stinks! They only scored 9 points during their game on Saturday, and 8 of them were scored in the first quarter. That's right - we only scored 1 point during the final three quarters. I didn't even know you could miss that many baskets - they are making about 1% of the shots that they take. They cannot make a basket! Here are a few pictures from her game on Saturday. Here they are warming up - Morgan is #2.





You can see Morgan on the left - wide open yelling "I'm open"! Hopefully we can pull off a win this Saturday. Haleigh's first game will be this Saturday too.


After the ball game we decided to go bowling in Denton. We had a good time. Morgan, my drama queen, had a minor breakdown because she thought she wasn't good enough. That lasted for a little, and then we all went on to have fun!

Here is Haleigh bowling - she had a great time - she loved it!


I thought this picture was funny - I don't think Jacob sat down the whole time - you can see him in the bottom right corner showing Mark how to bowl!

Here's Morgan - I thought this picture was cool with everything blurry in the background.

This was Jacob's approach to bowling - just walk up to the lane and chunk it. With the help of the gutter guards he actually did quite well!

did you guys go bowling cuz of the wii? it's really hard to take good pix at a bowling alley cuz of the dark area where you are & then the lights at end of lane. stinks. jacob looks like he did with the wii...:)

I bet Mark appreciated the gutter guards too.

I'm sharing his pain in basketball. We are 0-3 after some home-cooking in Boyd last Saturday. We've lost all our games by just a point or two. 3 more and it's over.

The bowling looks so much fun--we haven't taken the kids yet, since it involves taking turns, waiting, and heavy objects, but someday we'll take that leap. Sorry about the basketball disappointment. Hope y'all have a great weekend!
