Last Upward Game

Today the kids both had games at 9:00, so we had to be up and going pretty early. I can't believe it's been 8 weeks since we started Upward basketball and cheerleading! WOW how time flies! Jason's team, the Cobras, were playing the Bears for the 3rd time this season. The Bears beat us 60-28 the first game, and Jason scored 20 of the points. Not a good outcome to a game. Big difference yesterday. They ended up winning their first game by 10 points. The kids were so happy. They worked SO HARD. We were so proud of them! They came together as a team, and almost everyone on the team scored a basket!! We loved the coach, and are excited to go to the basketball camp in the summer!
Rachel did a great job cheering in her last game. She got to bring her megaphone home which had all her stars on it. She will bring her pom poms home after the awards ceremony Monday night.
After the games, we took Rachel to FBK for Upward Soccer evaluations. I signed up to coach or be an assistant coach for her team, so I am excited to be a part of such a great ministry. She did a great job with her evaluations. The first practice will be the week of March 29th. Thankfully all of the practices are on Tuesdays at 6:00 and all games are on Saturdays at either 10 or 12. It will be nice to have a consistent schedule.
After evaluations, we went to Maggie Moos to get ice cream to celebrate the end to a great season! The rest of the day was spent working on science fair project, lesson planning, and just being together as a family - it was nice to have a night at home!
