Coach Kaitlyn

Kaitlyn is coaching a 3rd grade girls basketball team for our city rec.  Their first game was against an Emporia team that played tournament ball last year so you can guess how that went.  Final score Emporia 22, CG 2.

However, this is what one of  Kaitlyn's players had to say about the game when talking to her dad: "They said we did awesome. They all said it, our coach, Kaitlyn, and her dad and Maggie and Kierni and well you get the point right? I mean we lost big time but we all had fun. I mean yeah lost big time but so fun." 

And the little girl's mama added: "I think that's a successful first game! Good job girls and coaches."

And that's what it should be about:  Teaching them to love the game as they are learning.  So proud of you, Kaitlyn!

Over the River and Through the Woods....

...to Grandmother's house we go.

While we do (technically) go "over the river" to get to both sets of grandparents' houses, "through the woods"... well, since we all live in the same town, not so much.  Hold on for the ride -- this is a long one! This blog post, not the drive.
