H5 Christmas 2018

Been MIA for so long I don't know where to start...….
I've decided to make changes to our lives and no longer travel balling or making ourselves so consumed with sports and life we don't get to enjoy it. It has been the biggest blessing relieving the stress of being overloaded and way to damn busy. Ill do a post on all that later to play catch up.

This has been one of my favorite Christmases ever. WHY???

Since not being overwhelmed by being overloaded with kids practices and sports I had time to do other things. My SIL and I were at Sam's Club in October and I saw a few things I wanted to grab for Christmas gifts but I knew if I waited until Christmas it would be gone so I after my SIL talking me into it I picked them up and that was the best decision due to tremendous Christmas spirit and holiday prepping to follow. When I would see something I would pick it up and not wait and that gave me a huge advantage in not being rushed and was able to enjoy the Christmas Holiday so much I decided I would take the girls Friday morning black Friday shopping with my mom and cousin wife and we had so much fun I want to make that into a yearly thing. My SIL and I also had a Gansta Wrappa brunch which will be every year now.

Santa enjoyed being able to get the kids list this year and also find a few little extra surprises

Shooting some B-ball...

WARNING: picture overoad

Mauri had her Pee Wee basketball game at Riverfield last weekend.

She may be the smallest one on the court but she is ready to play and came to win.

Maci has been playing for years now so that's all Mauri knows she has been going to all of her practices and games for years now and she has had 3 years of intermural basketball before this.

She had to take a picture of her shoes and said: Tip Toeing in my Jordans

She wouldn't tell a sole where she go her shoes. Everyone was asking her and she replied its a secret I don't want anyone else to get them. We all know Mauri is just like her Momma and couldn't wear some ugly shoes so she hunted and found these. 

 

Maci & Paige:

I owe a huge thank you to these 2 for taking all of the pictures and videoing the game for me

I love these 2 girls

 

We love our favorite Coach Chad

 

Rhett is to young to play but he has been at the boys practices and supporting them all the way

 

When she is nervous shooting Free Throws

Just look how little she looks

 

Getting some air in her air jordans 

The game came to an end with the score 4-4

{Bragging moment: Mauri made 3 of those points}

We had to go into overtime and no one scored so they took 5 off the team and lined them up to shoot free throws to see who had the most and whoever had the most would be the winner. It came down to Mauri being the last person and so far no one has made a single free throw so it was all on Mauri's shoulders. Talk about nervous I was so nervous and I can only imagine what she was thinking.

So here she goes:

She made it!!!!! WE won the Game

 

Her team coming out congratulating her.

This team is a great group of girls

 

Mauri & Elle

These girls have came along way from their first intermural basketball games
