Just Hoops

 

Since Nolan mainly plays spring/summer sports, it's sometimes tricky to find ways to keep him busy over the winter months.  We filled his time with some basketball clinics this year with his buddy, Calvin.  He really enjoyed them even though he does not want to play on a team.  It's fun practice and gives him some pointers for his driveway basketball game.

Mairin loves Calvin and cheered him on during the lesson.  When we got back into the car she said, "Good job getting the ball in the hoop, Calvin."  

Perfecting her hand elephant for Grandpa.

Eric and Calvin's parents have done most of the driving to these clinics but I had all the kids on the last lesson just recently.  The girls were constantly whining and fighting, laying on the floor, demanding snack and being super frustrating for the entire hour and a half.
