Basketball and another birthday

Basketball is here and we are running all over Valdosta for Mack and Emma's games throughout the week. Mack's team has only had 1 loss so far and 3 wins. Emma's team has lost 3 and won 1. Currently they have had to postpone her team's games due to a girl on her team testing positive for COVID. We opted to do that instead of making them play in masks, which was what the Parks and Rec were requiring. 

In addition to basketball this week, I celebrated another birthday,(Not sure why those keep coming?!) and in lieu of the Daddy/Daughter dance this weekend, Worth took the girls to dinner and a movie. The girls were not thrilled to have to go to the actual dance, so that is why they opted to just spend some time with Dad over dinner and "Sing 2" at the theater. I asked all of them to make sure pictures were taken and I got one picture :( 

Mack and I had a night out while the girls were with Worth. There were many things he wanted to do, but with my help he narrowed it down to going to see "Sing 2" (we went to the mantinee so we wouldn't run into the girls) and then picking up pizza to bring home for dinner, because he wanted to get his bath before dinner to watch the Olympics while he ate his pizza. 

Next week is winter break, we will head to SSI for the weekend while Ellie goes on the church ski trip to West Virginia. I can't wait to see how that trip goes and hopefully have some good pictures she takes to post! 




They were a little rough around the edges for this first game, but Mack's team has really picked up the pace since they played this one. 


Mack is playing so well on defense this year. 


He has some dribbling skills to work on though
All of the pictures I've taken of Emma are a big blur. She is up and down the court the entire game. There was no way I was going to let her play in a mask. 



Emma looks like a little peanut compared to some of these bigger girls, but she takes them all on with no fear.  

This was Monday as we waited on Ellie in her piano lesson. Mack was peppering me with questions and talk, so I snapped a picture of him. 



Despite having 3 kids' dental appointments, 2 kids' basketball games, dance drop off and pick up, as well as other normal Tuesday things, I was able to squeeze a Birthday Burn workout in. I stole this picture from my gym's social media page. They make it so fun when it's your birthday.  


I didn't get any pictures of Mack's game, and this is the only somewhat clear picture I got of Emma at her game Tuesday. I thought it was really awesome of them to both win their games for my birthday! :) 


Mommy/Son date night


He got a small popcorn and a blue slushy. He and I both LOVED the movie. 



Per his request, we came home after picking up Hot and Ready pizza at Little Caesar's, he had his bath, donned his PJs and we watched curling on the Winter Olympics. He's really been into the Luge and Curling events so far.  

This is our Daddy/Daughter date night picture for this year. I think I'm going to force the dance on them next year, if Worth isn't working. Stinkers.
