Basketball!

We took basketball pictures Friday night at practice. They are so great I wanted to share them. Thanks to the awesome coaches (Jennifer Thompson, Matt Gambill, Andrew Schwarz, and Sabrina Bryant) who have helped ease some of the burden of having over sixty players and twenty cheerleaders this year.


All the players, cheerleaders, and coaches



Coach Schwarz and the "blue team"



Coach Thompson and the "green team"



Coach Gambill and the "red team"



Coach Gambill and I with the "purple team"



My team for the past four years (minus last year's graduates)



Boys who believe they are better than LeBron James and their coach who tries to help them learn humility (maybe they should have had the coach who is known for humility)

It is amazing and humbling that this started out five years ago as a project to grow closer to the parents and families of the students in my own personal classroom. Now over a third of our 1st through 5th grade students are a part of this.

Granny Rainey

I can't remember if I ever posted a picture of when "Granny Rainey" came to visit during our family unit at school. Just in case I didn't...
