Playing a bit of basketball and cheering them on

Yesterday was Joshua's first basketball game with Upwards Sports. He did really well. He almost made a basket and covered his man as closely as possible. It was great to see him grow into this position.

Our sweet Sarah made her cheerleading debut yesterday as well. She joined Upwards Cheerleading and she was able to cheer for Josh's team. She did great too!

Go Team Go!

It was so much fun to go to their game and see them trying so hard. Upwards has a neat philosophy about the game as well. They are so encouraging to the children and they seek to teach the children the rudiments of the game as well as encourage them in Christ. They learn verses as teams and they talk about Christ-likeness on and off the field. It has been neat to join this organization!
