For Love of the Game


Today's edition of Carin's love challenge is dedicated to Sheriff and his love of basketball.  He is currently playing with some friends on a local team and having lots of fun playing games on Saturdays. 



Sheriff is not a typical basketball player... I say not typical because he has some unusual moves.  He sometimes twirls, sometimes does a homerun slide down the court (I wish I had a shot of that one) and his hands are always busy doing all kinds of unusual moves.  You really have to see it to believe it.  Pictures just don't do it justice and he moves so fast they end up blurry.  Or is it that I'm laughing too hard that my camera is shaking???  You decide.



He moves to the beat of his own drummer.  I think he definitely is a combination of my husband and myself - a basketball loving dancer. poor kid!!! hahahaha!!!  just kidding!!!  

He is one awesome kid and I love going to his games.  I'm sad it is only once a year and for just 8 games.  But he loves it so much he takes every opportunity to use the court in the backyard to practice his "skills" in the nice weather.  

Well... my love of chips is calling to me so I must end this post and heed their siren call.  hahaha!!!

Camera Woes Continue...



My camera and computer continue to battle one another and I cannot figure out what is wrong.  My old Kodak will upload pictures.  Yesterday's picture of my oldest is actually an old picture I found on the internal memory of the Kodak camera.  My Rebel has been refusing to load pictures onto my Mac since the weekend.  

I had Brett bring home a new firewire to see if that was the problem.  I thought I had it solved when I loaded some pictures I took of my youngest boy today but then when I put the other memorycard back into the camera it was a no go again.  I would assume it was a memory card problem except that over the weekend when I tried loading  pictures from the memorycard that successfully loaded today, it didn't work.  I am ready to pull my hair out!!!!  So still no Halloween pictures of my kids to show off.  Only a knot in the pit of my stomach and another phonecall to make to Apple.  My last phonecall lasted 45 minutes (obviously without success!!)  Good thing I have Applecare!!!

Well, I did manage to upload SOME photos so for today's blog my entries for Carin's challenge are a duet of photos that I thought went well together....

CUTE...
