B-Ball Girl

Ame is playing her first year of Jr. Jazz Basketball.

This is the second week (I forgot my camera last week).

The first game was a bit overwhelming, being her first

REAL experience playing an actual game, but she

still did great. This week was quite an improvement!

The team is having their last minute pre-game huddle.

I know this picture is blurry, but I had to include it.

This was the first shot of the game...

and AME made it!!

She made 2 more baskets during the game.

The last one, just seconds before the end

of game buzzer. They didn't win, but played

AWESOME!

Of course, we are all there CHEERING her

on (but also running wild, screaming

because we don't want to sit still but instead

run on the court, and just

driving mom and dad crazy)

Ash has little lamb (their class pet)

visiting our family this weekend, so he

HAD to come to the game!

Ame is quite the hussler. She takes

the ball down the court well, gets right

under basket with no fear to shoot.

She is learning how to play offense
and make herself open to make a shot
or help out a teammate.

We couldn't be more proud of her.

This is her first TEAM sport, and

we are finding out that she is quite the athlete.

I think we are going to have some

ball players in this house????

(Kaipo starts next month)




Ashy Boy




















Ash's preschool went on a fieldtrip this week
to Black Island Farms. They have all sorts of
activities, including a hay ride and each of the
kids got to choose a pumpkin. Dad and Nalu
joined Ash, for some fun. Notice Nalu...
barefoot. I think dad forgets he can walk and
that he actually needs shoes on his feet when
he leaves the house. He is actually pulling a sticker
out of his own foot, in the picture below.
Poor Kid! Hopefully as winter sets in Mr. Mom
will remember those shoes for Nalu :)
Ash is really growing and learning a lot this
year. I love to hear him say the Pledge of Allegience,
the Nursey Rhyme of the week, new songs
and all the fun things he shares with us after
school. He is quite the smarty pants!











oh what a boy!

A few weeks ago, in his Spanish Class,

Kaipo was the
Student of the Week.
He shared his poster, all in Spanish

and dad said he did an OUTSTANDING job!!

He is learning soo much and is even

reading on a 3rd grade level.

His intelligence amazes us all the time.

If we can just help him get that behavior

under control, then I know we will see even more

amazing things happening with this incredible boy!
