On The Road Again

Both boys' basketball seasons are underway which means we're burning up the road every weekend. Miles is excited to play on his first traveling team. They've played four games and won three of them (and just barely falling to a 4th grade team). He's having a blast and doing a great job. The league they are in now allows only half court defense, and he keeps getting whistled for guarding too early. He is done until after the holidays when tournaments start. 
Both team pics are missing one player. 

Worn out after two early games. Catching a nap on the way to Owen's games. 
Owen is playing on the same team that he joined in third grade. It amazes me how good (most) 6th grade teams are. They went to a huge tournament in Wichita this past weekend. They made it into the top division, but lost a couple of close ones including a double OT game. Of course, Owen loves every minute of it. Miles and the other younger siblings have a great time in the stands. We stayed in a hotel this weekend and that was a big deal to the boys. Not so much for Mom and Dad who had to sleep with Graham.
