Sammy's game was at 8:30am Saturday morning. Because it's a pre-school team there are no refs and the coaches stay on the court with the kids the whole time. It's also broken up into six 6 minute segments since the littles aren't going to hold out too long.
There is one kid on Sammy's team that cracks me up. Sweet little Carlos, during the game he wondered off to get some water from his mommy. Then we were constantly telling him to run to the other side of the court, find the person you're guarding, run back, get off the goal post... He was a hoot.
Sammy, on the other hand, is loving basketball. He can dribble pretty well and most of the time he can catch the ball when it's passed to him. After each game the kids receive stars based on their performance during the game. Sammy got the Red star for Defense. He was getting agressive out on the court and attempted to take the ball from the opposing team several times.

Hannah is seriously enjoying cheer leading. She knew all of her cheers and was ready. As I was getting her dressed she told me she was a little bit nervous. Sweet girl. She did just fine though. She got the Blue star for being Christ-like. From the moment she heard that was one of the stars she could earn she was determined to get it. It's been all she's talked about. What a wonderful goal for my sweet baby. She definitely earned it too - she knew all of her cheers, encouraged the other girls and continued cheering w/o complaint when she knocked her megaphone into her mouth (she's so full of grace!)
Only 7 more weeks to go!
