Raquetball

Whenever I take the boys to the gym, they love to watch the basketball players shoot hoops. One day, we were watching the basketball players, and the boys went exploring further down the hall. They came across the raquetball courts and were very curious about this new sport they hadn't ever heard of before. We sat there and watched the raquetball players play for quite some time and I promised them that we would schedule a court for us next time we came to the gym. So thats what we did. We checked out 2 raquets and 2 balls from the fitness desk and got to play raquetball for 30 minutes. I didn't think they would really last that long, but they played hard and were hardly ready to quit after 30 minutes! I would bounce the ball for Jaxton to hit, and then bounce another ball for Cooper to hit, and we did this over and over and over while Baby Kaylee slept peacefully in her carseat in the corner of the court. (We turned her backwards so she wouldn't get hit with a ball). We had a blast. I was impressed with the determination both boys showed to hit that ball! After our 30 minutes, the boys were definitely worn out! It was a fun day!
