B-Ball TIME!!!



B-Ball here we come!!! Saturday was Jiles first game for the Buffaloes. He is playing for the Upward Bound league in Hopkinsville. It was a great experience. They had a practice, devotional time, and then got stars for being Christ-like and Jiles got best offense.


My big boy is a balla.... Well this is how it works. They are matched up with another player from the other team (they wear the same colored wrist bands) and they are only allowed to guard that player. This was great and helped to control the craziness. He did so well on defense. The other team had one great player and it was hard to keep up with him but we will get better. Remember this is our first game. Well let me get to the part of my boy being a balla. He got the ball a couple of times and missed it barely....but then it happened. He went for the shot and made it!!!! 2 points for the Buffaloes. I went CRAZY!!! And Then.... he did it again the next time down the court. He stole the ball and then it was....4 points for the Buffaloes. As you can see I was a Very Proud Momma!!! We only scored twice by my baby and the other team scored 4 times but they don't really take score. I was so proud of him and how much he tried. He loved it. It is such a great league. They learn a game and about our Savior. They learn to be Christ like in sport and show God's love through Basketball. How Cool!!!
Here he is. Doesn't he look so cute. I was just so proud. He birthday is tomorrow and we had his party right after the game at the local skating rink but I will post those tomorrow or Tuesday. I can't believe he will be 6 at 3:15 in the morning. Man, how time flies. He is becoming such a little man. I am so blessed.

Mute the music at the bottom and watch our team run in. They get announced like the big dogs in the NBA... Check out how everyone else runs in and my sweetie struts. Too funny!!! Hope you had a great God filled Sunday and enjoyed the beautiful weather. God bless you all this week,

Hi There! Thanks for stopping by my blog! I love the adoption world- it is so fun to meet other moms who are going through the same experiences! You are right- our timelines are very close so we should be hearing about our babies at around the same time!
Love your blog- one more that I am going to be following now!!!
