Saturday was a super busy in FamilyOF5Land too!
I took Princess to Basketball Evaluations Saturday morning. This is really kind of neat. One of the big churches down here runs an athletic center. In the winter they offer basketball and cheer leading. Last year Princess chose cheer leading and it was a lot of fun but I cannot tell you how happy I am that she chose basketball this year! I would much rather have her participate in a sport than watch and cheer for a sport. (Side note: Those little cheerleaders worked really, really hard last year and I came out of the entire experience with a better understanding of how cheer leading works! If she chooses cheer leading next year I will be fine with that.)
In any event, she wanted to try basketball this year! So, I signed her up, paid online and took her to her evaluation on Saturday morning. Evaluations are not has bad as they seem. The coaches are trying to spread out the talent so no one team is better than the rest of the teams. This is a "for fun" experience.
While I was there I asked if the Prince would be able to participate too? He is 4 1/2 and they require the kids to be 5. I was ecstatic when they said "yes"! I brought him in for an evaluation. He will be playing on the Kindergarten team. How cool! I have been meaning to get him into some sort of sport since he turned 4, so this is great!
Hopefully they will have practices on the same night. They will both have games on Saturdays so that will get a little crazy but it is all in the name of fun and exercise!

fun fun.. Saturday was Mr Man's same thing for his basketball. I know what you mean about the cheerleading. My Princess did cheerleading for 5th grade football last year, and though it was fun to see her all dressed up in her uniform on friday walking around the school or at the football game cheering, I like watching her play basketball better. Though I have to say Cheerleading made the girls work harder then any other sport she had ever played in..
