Basketball

Getting out the sillies before the big game.

The mass chaos

I thought this picture was hilarious because the whole team is waiting to block the other teams shot. They did this everytime the other team would come down to shoot a basket.

Warming up

As most of you know, Dax loves everything basketball. He loves to watch it, play it, talk about it, and wear the entire outfit to go along with it. He just loves it and can't get enough of it. Well, we found out that in a neighboring town they do basketball for his age. They have a preschool league for ages 3-5 and we were ecstatic to hear that Dax could actually play. Most cities don't start basketball until 3rd grade so when we found out that this area had a league for his age we jumped at the chance to sign him up. It's actually where he played soccer and that's how we found out they did basketball as well. Dax was so excited to play his first game and couldn't wait to get out on the court and make some baskets. And that's what he did the second he got out there. I think he ripped the ball out of the other teams hands and ran down to the other end for a slam dunk. The whole game was so hilarious. When you have a bunch of 3, 4, and 5 yr. old's playing basketball it's pretty entertaining. They were just running up and down the court with the ball and slamming it in the hoop. At Daxon's first game they were just ripping it out of each other's hands and stealing it. At his second game, it was a little bit more controlled. The coaches would get the rebound and give each kid a chance to shoot it. That was really hard for Dax because he just wants to grab it every time and shoot it. But he's having a

great time and loves playing with his team.
