OU basketball

Keller has really gotten into basketball this year. He got a basketball goal for Christmas from Nonni and Papa Todd, he's playing on a recreational basketball team, and he loves watching the Thunder! OU is also really into basketball this season and have one of the top-ranked teams in the country. We decided to take Keller to his first OU bball game on Feb. 13 when OU hosted Kansas in what was supposed to be the rematch of the season (about a month before, OU traveled to Kansas to play when both teams were ranked #1. The Sooners lost that nailbiter in 2 overtimes. However, everyone knew that when they rematches in Norman a month later, the Sooners would be victorious).  
, it was a lackadaisical game for both teams without anywhere near the intensity of that prime time battle in January and Kansas had only slightly more gamesmanship than the so-called Sooner Magic and stole another win from the now 3rd-ranked OU team. 
That didn't stop our wonderful day though!
Keller had fun getting his face painted...
...and pretending he was Buddy Heald...

Even though the Sooners couldn't pull out the win, we all made a great memory to share for years to come. 
BOOMER!

Terra Verde sings at Rivermont

I say it all the time, but I will say it again--we are SO HAPPY that we have found Terra Verde Discovery School for Keller to attend. This year has been amazing. We have gone from having a child who HATED going to school everyday the last two years to having a little boy who can't wait to get there in the morning.  His teacher, Ms. Lindsay Berryhill, is an amazing woman who has gotten Keller to tune in and love learning.  Among the wonderful things he has done in first grade this year, including learning Mandarin, having a lemonade stand to earn money to build an animal hospital for dramatic play, visiting The Orr Family Farm, having a manners lunch at Charlestons, and many more things, he also had the opportunity to sing Christmas carols with his 89 other school mates at Rivermont Retirement Home.  The seniors at the home were so entered by these children and we were truly impressed with how well they all behaved. The singing was excellent, but what was truly inspiring w...

It's been ENTIRELY too long!

Clearly Keller is distraught that it has been so long since my last posting. It has been almost two weeks since my last blog post. These last two weeks at school have been so busy that when I come home at night the last thing I want to do is get on the computer. Plus, working so much has not left me ample time to get good shots of Keller. When we're playing and he does something funny I never have the camera around. However, as a good change of pace I do have some good video taken from this weekend. My mom keeps Keller 2-3 days a week and for some reason she decided the boy does not have enough toys. As if...(haha, throwback to Clueless). So, she decided Keller needed to work on being the next Tiger Woods (before all the you know). Anyway, this is Keller with his very first set of golf clubs. At first glance, he seems like a natural... Doesn't it look like he hit the ball right into the cup and is now getting the ball out of his hole-in-one? We he did get it in the cup ...
