Basketball, Volleyball, and Road Trips, Oh My!

Yesterday was jam packed with sports from the moment we got up to late into the night. Both girls had stuff going on, here in Boise and down in Twin Falls.  

Kendall had her very first basketball game and did such a great job!

Addie also had her first tourney with her volleyball team down in Twin. It made for a crazy long day and we are definitely thankful all of the other tourneys are here in town!

Annual Sledding Adventure

Well, this year's annual New Year's Day sledding adventure was postponed TWICE due to lack of snow. We knew we'd get that Idaho winter, but it was just a matter of time. So 19 days later, we finally got the snow we needed. As usual, the day did not lack for entertainment. The first "adventure" was pulling into the parking area to find my dad's truck stuck in the snow. Once we dug and pushed the truck out, the sledding began.







 


















One of the great moments came when my father came barreling down the mountain, face first, and hit a small jump. Instead of using the tube to cushion his landing, he used his face as a pole to catapult his body end-over-end. I had seven videos of the day, and that was the one moment I decided to snap a picture instead of video. Take my word, it was a majestic show of human body acrobatic talent. I'm sure he'd love to reenact the moment! The picture right above this paragraph captures the moment leading up to the grand event.




















And of course the day would not be complete without a complete train wreck!

New Year, New Sport

Kendall has decided that she wants to try out a new-to-her sport:  BASKETBALL!  She's small but mighty, so I have no doubt that she will excel at this sport. She has one practice under her belt, and I have to say, she's quite the little defensive machine. She LOVES stealing the ball, so this works well for her aggressive traits. I can't wait to watch her debut season!
