Here are some pics of the boys

We had 70 mph wind gusts

This house is just before you get to our neighborhood and just look what happened. The town of Cabot (where I work) was without power for 10 hrs or so. They canceled games and everything. There was debree everywhere. It was 70 degrees at 2pm and by
2:30 or so it was dropping like 15 or so degrees and by 4 I would say it was down right cold and windy and that is not an understatement.



Look at this root ball.

And Kyle did it again...

Kyle scored 4 pts as did Peyton. The ball was thrown to him and he was surrounded by blockers and just threw it up and in with the basket. Here are some pictures of the boys warming up just before the game. I am going to try to get some game shots, but you know I am the coach and it is hard to try to snape pictures while yelling at the boys.

Look both feet are off the ground

Hip Hip Hoarry for Kyle

OH MY!! My little Kyle scored 6 points tonight at his game. He also had 2 steals. He is only in Kindergarden and I know next year he will be one dang good player. This year he is so small most of what he does gets blocked and I only put him in for 2 quarters. I just don't want him to get hurt. He is my baby and all.

Oh, let me give you an update on Peyton. He is great now. I don't know what I am going to do when summer hits. He is so much a routine boy. But the good news is he is back to normal.

Jolee- Kyle was looking at the pictures on your blog and he says he would like for Hayden to come over. Ha ha. Bless his little heart, he just doesn't understand why you moved soooooo far away. funny huh.

Coaching S......

I am just a little frustrated right now so I thought I would just type my thoughts down. First of all, we I decide to coach is it for the kids and yes I do expect the kids to listen to me when I am trying to talk to them. Let me begin by we did win our game, during the game one of our kids shot on the wrong side and scored for the other team. Ok we called timeout and talked to the boys about who goes were adn were we need to shoot at. Ok no problem.... We also tell a child to chase the ball and that child stares at you and says what do you mean. ok that is where it does get frustrating because at all the practices we say that and he goes, so what do we do as coaches. So the game ends and we are in our huttle talking. My other coach is talking explaining to the boys what we will work on next practice and this child is not paying attention so I say, listen to the coach if you want to play. That's it.

So 8:00 pm rolls around and the mother of this child calls and starts complaining. Stating that we think all the kids are perfect except hers. By all means that is not the case, I told her she just walked up at the time we were talking to all the boys and yes I did direct that at her son, but for not listening to the coach. Why did she wait until 8 pm to call the game was over at 1pm. If she had a problem she should have directed us then. We have had problems from the beginning with this family. She thinks her husband could do a better job. So then why did he not sign up to coach??? (We found out he was a step dad). The moral of my story is...... All of us sign up to volunteer to coach and we don't get paid, and I feel I am really a fair coach. Please don't complain about it.

Peyton has the blues

My middle child Peyton is not doing so well. The past few days he is has be down. He misses his teacher and friends from being off of school for 2 weeks. He has not been eating. So I can not wait until Monday, off to school they go. I have been working 3 days a week still and they have come to work with me, but that still does not satisfy my Peyton. All he does is moop around in his jammies and sleep. He doesn't even want to go outside to play. We had basketball practice last night and he was not on his game. Of course that was frustrating him. He is just not in his routine he is comfortable with. I will have to tell you how it gets once he goes back to school. We also have a game tomorrow. So I sure hope he can get on focus. He is a main scorer. I will update more later.
