Basketball season is upon us. That means practice four nights a week and at least two games on Saturdays.
Coley's team is called 'The Deniers' (which is a spin off of the coaches last name.)
Courtney's team is called 'The Fireballs' (which has nothing to do with the coaches last name.)
I heard the coach is pretty hot though.


Your gym has windows? That's not fair!

Great photos Karen, did you scope out the local sports organizations to find the teams with the best gyms to photograph in and then sign your kids up? Seriously, never have I seen a gym with windows or a normal color painted on the walls before.....

hahahaha!! Hot coaches rock! Love checking in on your blog Karen to see what little chuckle I'm going to get today. Thanks for sharing.

Karen,
I have been enjoying your blog for over a year now. I always grab a cup of coffee and sit down and look at all your pictures! I would rather read your blog than the morning paper! I enjoy it immensely! Your life and your kids are picture perfect, even if you don't think so! I can't tell you how much fun I've had reading it! Thank you for being the person you are!

Great photos!! Is it okay to say we agree with your description of the coach? Psst...we won't tell Josh what you said about the 'hot coach'.

You are too cute Karen! Would you mind sharing what lens you would recommend for outdoor kids sports (baseball & swimming in particular) for a budget-minded person (I know, cringe - under $600, if possible). I have a Canon Rebel.

Love the images, expressions, etc. Love the memories of many great years spent in gym - none of them as bright and photo-friendly as this one though! My daughter is now in college, but those days in the gym for basketball and volleyball were so wonderful - enjoy!! Although I'm guessing Miss Annie doesn't quite love it yet ;)

Karen, you always crack me up with your comments!!! I am so glad I had just swallowed my drink when I read "The Fireballs (which has nothing to do with the coach's last name)". You are such a hoot and love the shots:)

Looks like Annie is trying out for "the pouters" ;)
