Upward Basketball

This has been a great season of Upward basketball. Upward basketball is a christian sports experience that emphasizes healthy competition, sportsmanship, skills building and fun versus the “win-at-all-costs” mentality found in many children sports leagues. I love that the kids memorize bible verses each week too.

This was Cameron's third year to play and Caden's first. I really could see a big difference in Cameron this year. He has come a long way and is a great player! Caden was so funny to watch. His excitement did not hide when he got the ball. Caden made his first and only basket on his very first game. Both of the boys love it and did not want to see it end. However, I'm glad it did because baseball sign ups are this week. We are a one sport at a time family!




Grandma, Uncle Rodney, Aunt Tara, Devin, and Sharee got to come watch. Dad was at a two day men's conference at our church. Michael was so thoughtful to leave the boys a note before he left early Saturday morning. Even though he explained to the boys why he would not be there the day before. He went the extra mile. Of course this was the only time he missed and he took the boys to every single practice!

I got a note too. :o)

This was one of Cameron's best games. He was the high scorer of the game. I love this game because he hears a whistle and you can just see it on his face....man what did I do? The whistle was from the another game. Cameron's good friend Evan is the one that was guarding him.

Caden...awww...so close!
