basket ball & other fun

This past Monday, our school basketball team played the staff men... + a couple church men as we didn't have enough staff for any kind of rotation. Of course, we went and cheered OUR team on!

--GO, DADDY, GO--

Anya - crazy girl
Mikalah was tired already... it started at her naptime
so, she had to go see Daddy where they were stretching...
don't you just love those knee chubs?
It is getting harder to keep her covered... she is growing taller so quickly!

and, he had to hold her (for good-luck, you know
-oh, wait.... we don't believe in luck!)
warming up
takin' a practice shot
and another - good follow through
got their numbers on
well... you all probably know more of what's going on than I really do...
I was never a good basketball girl
but there were some pretty intense plays
everyone is looking up at the ball

and IN it goes!! for the "old" team...
yep, that's what some of the students called them
Mikalah was sooo tired by the end
oh yes, and the final score was 61-60 ("old" guys)



fast forward to Wednesday....
I am sick... so, Mikalah is still in her PJs
But the weather was SOOO beautiful that I could not deny my girlies some sunshine for a bit. When they came in, they looked like this!

"who you callin' dirty?"
"but, I'm not dirty, Momma"
(she REALLY said that to me!)
just before they got in the tub!


and the "seat" of the situation


and now, Friday.... Mikalah tore a page in a book. I taped it.

and then.... I left the room.

I came back to find that Anya had ALSO taped it!
side view - wow... that's alot of fixin'!
Thankfully, this tape peeled up easily with no more destruction to the book.

I am still a bit ill, but feeling better. My throat feels horrible - but I'm praying some more gargling (yuck) and rest will help. Today was another beautiful day and the girls played outside much of the morning, but they did not get quite as dirty as the other day! It's gotten up to 70 most of the week... but alas, it will be in the 50's the next couple days. We have Spring Break next week - YEAH! maybe we'll make it to the park or a friends house.

Hey Tascha,

Sorry to hear that you aren't feeling well. I LOVE the tape pictures. :)

Enjoy the rest of this warm weather before tomorrow gets here!

That game was wonderful! I did miss the last 20 seconds because I had piano students waiting on me, though. :-( But I agree... there were some pretty intense plays. I really enjoyed it, even though I didn't really know what was going on most of the time. But I'm not a b'ball girl, either.
Hope you're feeling better. When you are, I'd love to get some pointers on "dressing up" my blog. Yours is great!

I love the "taped" book. I guess she is an over-achiever. ;)
