Basketballs and Spelling Bees

Tyler just finished his first season of basketball. Lets just say that he started out knowing nothing about basketball and ended with even making a few steals and taking a few shots. He loved playing. He greatly improved throughout the season. Towards the end he really stared to get into the game and play more aggressive. His team only lost one game the whole season. Now it is on to soccer as soon as the snow melts.

Another activity that Tyler recently participated in was his school spelling bee. It was for 3rd - 5th graders and the top two get to go on to the district level spelling bee which is 3rd - 8th graders. Well guess what? Tyler came in second place. He just continues to amaze me with how incredibly smart he is. He just kept going up the the microphone and spelling the words correctly and before we knew it, it was down to a 5th grader and Tyler. He did a great job. He was a little nervous at first, but after the first few rounds he looked like he was having fun. The district spelling bee is next week and we will let you know how it goes. Congrats and good luck Ty.
