A little victory is always sweet

This past Friday and Saturday, our family went to our first YMCA basketball tournament to watch Landen's 3rd grade team play. 
They played one game Friday evening and three on Saturday.  It was the second game on Saturday that ended up being the team's first victory for the year.  21-20! 
Since this was these boys' first introduction to basketball, we didn't expect them to be great this first year.  In fact, to keep them working hard in the future, it was better that they weren't. 
 
Something happened at this tournament, though.  The usually timid boys came to play! 
 
Although Landen was disappointed that they didn't place high enough to receive medals, he was still pretty excited about that win.  We look forward to watching these boys play through their years together.  This is just the beginning!
