Sports

We have added sports to our life this year - this is the first taste. We have much more to come...

But here is the first thing we have tried: Upwards Basketball, a Christian organization that teaches skills and doesn't emphasize score until reaching 3rd grade level. We let Caleb pursue this and now all the kids wish that they were playing. We will see if we can juggle multiple schedules - the trial run is coming this spring.

No, Caleb is not in this picture, but it is his team in the silver.

Here he is in uniform with his Coach - a great guy and coach!
There is the player - mid motion of the court here. It is really hard to get good pictures, the lighting is rather poor! He loves to defend his opponent - they are matched with colored wrist bands to someone of similar skill level and so they can remember who they are defending!

We have 3 more games left and the season is done. The perfect time length.
Coming soon for the 3 Backer kids: track and t-ball.
Backer mom is gearing up for the birth marathon count down: 5/20
Backer dad is counting down to Code Camp: 3/28
