Weekend - Redefined

There was a point in my life, probably before children, that I associated weekends with relaxation.  I have managed to redefine the weekend and it is now defined as chaos.  Between running kids to birthday parties, sleepovers, play dates, practices and games, getting caught up on housework, kids homework and getting my runs in, I am always exhausted when Monday rolls around and ready for a real weekend.  

Kira and Keenan had busy weekends with basketball and wrestling.  Keylee had a busy weekend being their biggest fan.  Kira had a basketball tournament and her team placed 2nd.  I wish my pictures were better but I am still trying to figure out my camera. I have only had my camera now for three years so I am hoping this will be the year I get it figured out. 

Below are super-fans Keylee and Darci.  Darci had a full day of basketball with her son playing in the same tournament but that didn't stop her from coming back to the gym to cheer on Kira too.

 Keenan got 1st place at his wrestling tournament this weekend.  The Manhattan club was the host of the tournament and, as always, the tournament was well done and well attended with wrestlers from all over.  Below Keenan is wrestling a kid from the Topeka club.
Keenan got the pin for the win.


Keenan being coached up by two of his coaches Jeff Sturdy (above) and Shawn Bammes (below) Oh, and his Dad adding in a few suggestions too.




Keenan is also playing Rec-League basketball this Winter.  I signed him up which means I also signed Joe up to coach.  However, in the picture below, there might be some confusion as to who is the coach.  Keenan is on the end of the bench shouting out some orders to his teammates while Joe is all smiles taking it all in.  

The picture above is yet another blurry pic but this time I cannot blame it on the iPhone.  Nope, this time the problem is the same as mentioned above.  It is me not knowing how to use my fancy camera with a million settings and I never know which one is the right one for indoor sports.

Maybe we need to squeeze in a camera class. I'm not any better with mine. At this rate I may have it figured out in time for senior pictures :)
