Another season in the books


As soon as February hits, my brain switches to baseball season (you should realize that pitchers and catchers report to spring training for the Rockies in 6 days), so perhaps it's a good thing basketball season for Cooper is now over. Less than three months til baseball starts for Coop.


This is the 4th year that Doug has coached Cooper's basketball team and they have continued to get better and better. He has great assistants (he would actually tell you he is the assistant) and a great group of kids. These kids play football, basketball and baseball together minus a few kids in each sport and they are getting to really know each other's strengths and how to feed off each other. It's hard to imagine that it won't be long before they are high school teammates.


Yesterday's single elimination tourney concluded the season and even though they lost 16-9, it was a hard fought game and they were seeded in the winner's bracket. I heard one mom describe the game as if our basket had a lid on it. We had shot after shot and I swear I counted five that went half way in and popped back out. Fortunately, one of them that Cooper threw up went in the hoop!
Thanks, Kris, for sharing your photos with your new fancy camera!!
