So, I put the boys on separate teams, thinking that they would do better that way. The first four weeks were great. The last two weeks, Gehrig's team needed another player and Damian's team had too many, so Damian played on Gehrig's team. They actually played very well together--looking for each other, passing and even making a couple of baskets! My favorite part was watching them walk off the court with their arms over each other's shoulder, talking animatedly about the game. It was so fun to see them running up and down the court with big smiles on their faces. They improved a lot in the 6 weeks they played. So. . .I think we've entered the "sports arena." Gehrig was so excited about taking Hip-Hop, but after trying that for a couple of weeks and then going to basketball, he's chosen to play basketball. Personally, I'm excited about his choice. I love to watch my guys play ball!
The lighting was terrible for pictures (maybe if I knew how to use the settings on my camera, I could have fixed that problem), so sorry about the pictures. Emma had her first clogging performance at the Mall this past Saturday. I love this picture of her (front and center) waiting behind the stage for her turn. She had fun watching all the more advanced dancers.
Here she is with her class dancing. I didn't try to get good pictures b/c of the lighting and b/c I was taking video of it. I was very pleased that she kept her thumb out of her mouth (something she does a lot during her classes for some reason) and did her best to follow along. It was so fun to see her having such a great time up there!
