Basketball

Basketball has started and we've had a few games already. The other night it was the third quarter and we were up by a good amount of points. I had a fast break and was close to the basket when I passed the ball out to a teammate to go in for the lay-up. As I came down from jumping I landed on a girl's foot from the other team and rolled my ankle. It was one of the worst feelings I've ever felt...I sat out the rest of the game icing it, only to wake up the next morning to a swollen, black, and blue ankle. It looks worse then it feels really. Thankfully we have Christmas break here soon so I won't be missing really any games. (other then a couple) That I'm very thankful for, but I wish this didn't happen at all.
I'm really excited for this basketball season, as we have a good team and a lot of potential!

Christmas Time

This has to be one of my most favorite times of the year! It is for most people I guess...Listening to the Christmas music, buying gifts for loved ones, getting out of school, and I could go on. =) It's easy to get caught up in excitement and busyness of Christmas though only to forget why we celebrate Christmas. One way that helps remind others of the real, true meaning is the Live Nativity. The Live Nativity is a reenactment of the Christmas story with real animals, singing, and a pretty real setting. It's a lot of fun and really does remind people of what Christmas is really about; Jesus' birth. We have hundreds of people come out to it. I guess you could say it's a big hit!
I can't believe that Christmas is only 17 days away...it's going to be here before we know it!! I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!
