Birthday, Basketball and Anniversary Oh my...

End of January is always full for us.  The morning of our anniversary was beautiful and sunny.  It was a Saturday, so we were all home. Dave and I decided to go for a walk.  Blake was coming with us, but he did the 6 mile loop and ran.  We planned to meet him along the way.  It was such a warm day that we went much farther than we had planned.  
One the way we meet Jared in the tractor and after some discussion it was decided to band the calves in the afternoon.  I also got a lead on a free bed.  We went and picked up the bed, had a quick lunch and then over to do cows.  It was amazing how warm and not windy it was. Also on the way home fromour walk we saw something in the air way off in the distance.  I thought it was the shape of a hot air balloon, but we never seen them this far and we couldn't figure out what it was.  When we got home we got out the telescope and it was a balloon.  Pretty cool.  Haven't seen one for a long time.

At the end of the day we were commenting how we didn't do anything on our list, but is was a still a great day.  Time spent together, beautiful weather, fun times.  It was a great anniversary. 
Blake is doing awesome at basketball.  His team is becoming more positive with each other and it is fun to see the team work that is starting to come together.  

It is funny though.  He either has a really amazing game or just a good game.  He doesn't know what makes the difference, but seems to play better when he is tired and not looking forward to playing.  We are loving watching him play.  Restriction have changed back and forth and number of spectators numbers have gone up and down.  They have let parents be the scorekeepers, so we have so far been able to attend the games.  Dave also has been going to drop in ball with Blake.  They really enjoy playing together. 


For my birthday it just happened that I didn't have to work that day.  Blake was on semester break and home.  We went for a walk together, had lunch, did some chores, played some games and then after Dave got home and dinner we went to Blake's game. Great to watch in person.
