Go Grant!!

Grant just started his first season playing Basketball. He loves it and is looking for any moment to shoot hoops with his Dad. Honestly, I think Paul loves that Grant is playing basketball more than Grant. He's quite the proud parent of his budding athlete son. Well, Grant has had a few practices, and he's done fairly well, he's playing with kids that have played last year, so he's trying to learn all the basics. He plays for the Grizzlies and they had their first game this last Saturday. Talk about cute! There is my son, this tall (a head taller than the average player), mop haired toe head skipping down the court not really knowing what is going on. I think Grant was happy he was playing in a real game, and every now and then got his hands on the ball. I had to repeatedly remind Paul that this was Grants first game. I think like every father, Paul was really hoping his son would be the star player, you know, the naturally gifted child that steps onto a court for the first time and is shooting 3 pointers and grabbing every rebound. Unfortunately the Grizzlies lost, but not without a fight. Grant had plenty of playing time and he said that he had fun besides the fact that they had lost. I'm sad to say I didn't get any good pics of the game, my camera decided to conveniently stop working after I took these pictures. Grant is #25, hard to miss!

Darn! It looks as though my camera did worse than I thought, the picture below for some reason won't come all the way up...sorry, at least you can see the tall mop head!
