We had a pretty lazy morning this morning, hanging out, with me cooking some custom pancakes, complete with choclate chips, rasinettes and carmel. Nate and I went to his first basketball game at noon. It's a co-ed team with 2nd and 3rd graders. They had their first practice on Tuesday, and I'm suprised at how well it all went. The kids play a 40 minute game, two halves of 20, each with 4 5 minute periods that the groups of five switch out. It's a non-competitive league, so they don't officially keep score, but Nate filled me in on exactly what the score was at half-time. The goal is to teach the kids the fundamentals of the game in a pretty loose environment. The refs are there to call major infractions, but let the kids play without being too picky. This is Nate's first time playing basketball on a team, and he did pretty well. He didn't get any baskets, but he did a good job rebounding and on defense.
After the game, Nate and I went out for lunch to celebrate his first game and then we headed home to watch Emily and Madeline put on a musical. Maddie's been digging being able to give kids piggy back rides, and now she's figured out that she can carry Emily around the house. Not sure how I ended up in this picture....
Cath and I are going on a date tonight, heading to Ann Arbor for dinner and coffee and whatever else they do in Ann Arbor.
