Basketball season has started







Dakoda and Dylan have had their first games. Dakoda's JV team won by about 30 against Wendover. We didn't stay for the Varsity but I heard they won too. Dean and I had an ElPaso Christmas party to go to. Dylan's team played Tabby. Altamont's 7th grade lost by 2. I'm not sure how I feel about that 7th grade game. I know they could have easily won if all of the "good" players were played at the same time. But the coaches feel like everyone should play. That's great if you don't mind losing but personally I'd like to see them win. That's my competative side coming through. Everyone can play and lose or the better players can play and the team wins. I promise you Tabby didn't play all their players equal time. They play to win. It is so hard to watch but then I sure wouldn't want my kid setting bench every game either. Who wins?
On another note... I bought myself a new flash for my camera for Christmas. Last year my basketball pictures were either dark or blurry. Gym lights suck for action pictures. I tried to talk the boys into wrestling so that my pictures would be clear but basketball won out so I really had no choice... did I? These pictures look so much better than last years!!! Merry Christmas to me.
