I was outside playing basketball with Finn and my 9 year old nephew, Michael. I wasn't asked to play by any means, but joined their game anyway. After a few minutes of showing them by ball stealing and lay-up skills, I heard Michael ask Finn, "Has your mom played basketball before?"
Finn: "I don't know. Why?"
Michael: "Because it seems like she played in high school or something."
Does playing church-ball for 3 years and scoring a total of 2 points all three years count as "playing" in high school? Either way- thanks for recognizing Michael.

Michael, the one who knows talent when he sees it, is the one on the far left.

I saw your title and thought of a post I could write about a compliment I got this week. I'll give you a preview, OK?
I was teaching a swim lesson as part of a re-certification class for camp lifeguarding. A little 3 year old boy said, "Miss Sarah, you look just like someone I know. She's my mother's mom." I said, "Are you telling me I look like your grandma?" He said, "No, I think she's my great, great, grandma! And you look JUST LIKE HER!" Oh wait, that wasn't a compliment, but yours was. xoxoxo
Well that just shows you still got it!! And if he comes to support his mama this soccer season you can again suprise him with your soccer moves!
Does Michael recognize talents? Why yes he does!
That picture is funny. Jeffrey is the only one smiling. Everyone else was too tough! Congrats on your basketball expertise. I will be sure NOT to offer to play with them after your performance. They would not have much good to say about my skills.

Look at you Missy, you're all getting respect from the nephews and what not....
Looks like we're due to have another basketball playoff in our family.
WOW! My kids only laugh when I try to play bball.
As someone who played church basketball with you, I'm laughing out loud.
No offense.
:) (wink)
Love your family pic. So stink'in cute! To answer your question...
Emma took the cake decorating class with Aunt Dori at the Micheals in Draper. :)
I just have one thing to say... Michael wants to be a professional basketball player when he grows up. Should I be worried for him or excited for you, hmmm...
Very funny . . . kids say it like they see it, so hats off to you!!
Mandy DID tell me that you and your friend Julie might be planning a trip to TX in Oct.!! That would be SO AWESOME!! I can't even tell you how excited that makes me! Like you said, about our two worlds coming together, it IS very cool -- whatever you need to help this come to fruition -- I'm here to help! YAAAAAYYYYY!! :)
