The Rough Sport of...


Roller-Skating!
Bet you didn't think I was gonna say that! But yeah...roller-skating was rough on my boys!! They were invited to their friend's birthday party, which was held at a roller rink, and (oh my goodness) they almost died!! Maybe not die, as in die, but die as in lets-see-how-many-times-my-knees-&-butt-can-hit-the-hardwoods-before-I-get ran-over-and-killed-by-real-derby-skaters. Their bodies took a serious beating but they swore to me that they were having a blast! Treyson saw their "fun" and quite sensibly opted-out. Sitting and watching with mom was waaaay more fun since there was quite a show going on.

Here's Carson's knees, just an hour after the party:



If you look close, you can see the bruised knees in this photo too (Carson in blue, dribbling the ball):

Want more basketball photos (considering that I forgot to take pictures of the boys in their skates)? Well here you go! Carson just got the rebound (#24 in blue):

Now here's Nixan...he's the blurry one in red that appears to be playing "london bridges" with two opponents, but in actuality just made an awesome pass to his teammate out of view. Probably goes without saying that my photography leaves much to be desired...

Isn't it fun to watch your boys play basketball? Carson's been shooting hoops for years now. I bet he's a star!
