Basketball and Puddle Jumpin'...















Yesterday, we made lemonade out of lemons...
It rained, so it was a little too nasty to run around and play in the grass like we would normally do. Instead, we did something better...we went Puddle Jumpin! On our street their were several puddles, so we just let Sawyer have at it! She was of course, loving it. Preston and I had to get in on some of the fun too.
Sawyer also played her first game of basketball...Preston was LOVING that. And what would be a real basketball game without at least one bloody nose? That's right, Sawyer hit her face on the rim and got her very first bloody nose. I was completely freaking out, but bless her little heart, as the blood was running down her face and she was half way crying, she was hollering, "I wanna try again!" Now if that's not a true athlete, then I don't know what is.
She's been asking to play basketball all day...but I wont dare tell her daddy that though. He already has big dreams of her playing women's pro-basketball ever since we found out she was in the 99Th percentile for her height, so he doesn't need any more encouragement. Plus I don't like bloody noses.
