Teacher VS. Student Basketball Game

Today some of the teachers at my school took on the 8th grader boys and girls basketball teams! This was so much fun for the entire campus and really is a good time to bond with a lot of the kiddos - both players and fans! Chad brought the kids to come and watch me play and after the game Chad told me that I was Kyan's hero right now! Kyan was so proud that I was out there playing and thought I was the coolest thing since sliced bread! Usually daddy is the cool one so I felt pretty special at the moment! Thanks Thorne for sticking around and taking pics!

One of my students made me a sign! I was so surprised! She even reminded me after the game that she drew birds on it, as she knows how much I love them! I was the only teacher that had a sign!

Defense - it is what I am good at! In high school I was always a better defender than I was on offense!

Waiting for them to bring the ball down the court after a free throw.

Here I am on offense!

Ummm...I think I am passing the ball - at least I hope cause that form looks bad, and I don't think that a shot a basket the entire time! The plan was to get it into the big guys!

Defense! Defense! GO! GO!

The TEACHERS, we look unstoppable huh?! HA! Some of us were a little worried we were going to need an oxygen tank, me included. I work out almost every single day, most times twice a day, but basketball is a whole different type of running!


My three favorite people in the entire planet - cheering on mommy!

The final score - TEACHERS were the home team, STUDENTS were the visitors...that is right - we crushed them!

These are some of my favorite girls that I teach! They are so special to me and I was so happy that they cheered me on! So bummed that I am the only one not looking at the camera!

We snuck in a family photo after the game! I was so excited when the three of them showed up to watch! I tried not to make it a big deal or not if they came - but was THRILLED that they made it! (Never fails that someone isn't looking at the camera - oh well!)

Been meaning to ask you about your new profile pic? Where the heck did you get that done, or is it just with your camera?? I really like it!
(I'm never happy with any of mine, unless they're just of Camden.)
