March Madness is just around the corner but the Pauley basketball season is all done. Both kids played this year. Reina on a co-ed team for second graders and Will on a boys' 4th-grade team. Will's team was undefeated and Reina's team lost just one game. After that game, she was mad and asked me if the team lost again, was she allowed to say the 'gosh d-word'? While I appreciate her ask for permission first strategy vs ask for forgiveness, the answer was still no. (Yes, I acknowledge that I'm a giant hypocrite for the number of times that I cuss at the tv because of sports. Do as I say, kid....)

 |
| He can also look pensive on the basketball court. |

| Will getting ready to shoot a free throw. We were so excited for him to get a chance to score but the nerves got to him a little bit too. He did make a basket later in this game. |
 |
| All of Reina's games were at 8:00 a.m. on Saturdays at a gym that's the furthest school from our house and still be in Cheyenne. It took us all a few minutes to wake up during those games. She picked out the shoes herself from the boys' section at Kohl's. The girls' choices were too pink for her liking. |
 |
| She has some speed! Reina had fun playing basketball too and she got the chance to bring the ball up the court during each game and even took a few shots at the basket. I hope there's more basketball in her future. |
