SNOW!!!

Derek (my nephew) and Grace and I played outside today. Derek didn't have any winter clothes so he got to wear Uncle Brooks' socks, Carhart bibs, hoodie and boots! The bibs were the funniest because I had to take the straps and wrap them with a hair tye to hold them up so the butt of the pants weren't down around his knees. He looked funny. Also, the bonus for me is that he got to wear a Green Bay Packers coat I got at a garage sale...Go Pack!!! Btw, Derek is NOT a Packers fan. :( Grace made a snow angel and Derek started a fort. We then went down to Uncle Steve's house and made a snowman and shoveled his driveway out for him. We are all tired!!!

Derek loving on Herbie!!!

Basketball Derek

Derek played against MD tonight which is his cousin Jacob's team. Derek's team ended up winning but it was a fun game to watch. Derek made a few baskets and a few rebounds. He is improving with each game. Way to go Derek!!!

Derek is playing Basketball again this year. Derek is number 40. Here are the pictures from his first game. They didn't win this one but they played well. Grace loves watching her cousin play any kind of ball. She even got a post game hug from him! Good luck this season Derek!!!
