Blake, the basketball player ...

For the past six weeks, Blake has been taking a basketball class through Holland Recreation. The class is called Start Smart, and they teach the kids basketball fundamentals. He absolutely loved this class! And I enjoyed it too because the parents are required to participate as well.

I swear his face is a spitting image of me when I was his age!

Shooting the ball. This was his favorite part!

More shooting. Look how high he jumped!
