It is almost the end of basketball season. I think that all of us have enjoyed the season this year. This was J3's first year playing and it has been a great experience for him in so many ways. He has such a strong competitive nature, and I have been very proud of him in the way that he has handled both wins and losses (which both leave the door open for the wrong kind of attitude). He has had a ton of fun and some special friendships have developed for him throughout the season. A's team has also been a lot of fun to watch, too! She just makes me smile the whole game. i love how she will have a look of sheer determination on her face one minute, fighting for the ball and then no matter how it ends up, she manages to come away with a smile! These girls have played together now for three seasons and my, have they come a long way!! They work so well as a team and have grown as players , as well as in character (they built A LOT of character the first season...they didn't win a game that first year and A described it best when she said "We aren't undefeated, we are just defeated!!) She really is so fortunate to be on a team with such a sweet group of girls! And as far as I'm concerned, so much of their growth can be credited to their outstanding coaches...one of whom is our very own J2!! He is awesome out there with those girls. What a lucky girl I am to be married to such a great man!

of course they got it from their dad- my favorite basketball player ever.
(p.s. we saw furman men play wofford and they were terrible. I miss the glory days of the j2 era.)
Basketball has been one of the most fun experiences in the world and I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world! Dad's a great coach!! Happy Birthday Dad!!
