Basketball Superstar

Hallie started basketball in October which overlapped with soccer for a few weeks. At first she was a bit unsure if she liked it, not sure if she even wanted to play but now... we can hardly pull her off the court. She got a basketball hoop for the backyard and she practices diligently even in the cold and rain. This week she was the top scorer with 18 points. Her coached teased her after the game and started to call her "Turtle." He said, "when I first started coaching you I wondered if you'd come out of your shell. You're out of your shell and I don't think I'll ever get you back in your shell!"

It's true. She was amazing. She is tall. She is strong. She is so fast. It was so fun to hear people in the stands talking about her. Asking us about her experience. What a happy day for Hallie. I couldn't have been more proud.
