Basketball

 Annaliese is playing on a basketball team for the first time this winter. The team is made up of other fifth graders from LC and plays teams from across Whatcom County. It's been a real learning experience and it has taken several weeks for her to start enjoying the game. The coach has said that it's really hard to coach basketball because there are so many rules to the game, especially compared to soccer (which they are all used to playing!) 

I've discovered that it's hard to take pictures...I never seem to be in the right place at the right time, but I'll keep trying. 



She made the basket!



Annaliese, Esme, and Emma (two of her best friends!)


These girls played mostly sixth-grade teams all season, which was rather frustrating for everyone, and seemed quite unfair. But it was fun to watch the girls improve over the season and become more confident in what they were doing. 

By the end, Annaliese seemed to catch onto the game a bit more and was sad when the season ended.
