Our Basketball Star

Peyton is playing basketball for a league here which is very well known UPWARD.. It is a christian league who teaches scripture and they do devotions every week.. Every player gets a award at the end of the game and it is a colored star like red is best defense, green best offense, white CHRISTlike and so on it is so cool!! It teaches good sportsmanship- which sometimes is not always seen like today. One of the players on the other team was just really a good example of what NOT to be.. It was unfortunate but, also good for the other players to see so they don't act like that~~~But anyway, Peyton has always been a good basketball player but today his true colors really came out... He scored 22 points in the game woo hooo.... He had lay ups, he had jump shots, he had block shots, he had 3 seconds remaining and just threw it and made it... He did so good and needless to say we are so PROUD of him.. We all had so much fun cheering for his team but the people that were watching definitely knew who Peyt's family was:)Baseball season has started as well so he is practicing 4 days a week for that and 1 for basketball and then 1 game a week for basketball.. Baseball season starts in March and Basketball is over the day it starts so we all have bittersweet feelings about that! Peyton has met some great kids and made some awesome friends on his basketball team but hopefully after basketball they will all stay in touch!! You just never know about Peyton you may just see him on the NBA one day.. He amazes us when it comes to sports, it just seems like whatever sport you ask him to do he is just a all around natural.. I wish I could say that for myself!!:) Anyway just needed to brag on our Peyt for a minute and of course we are very proud of our Phillip too~~ Stay tuned for the next brag session on Raising The Ray Boys:) xoxoxo to my boys!!!
