Lauren's first year of basketball! She did great. She is such a natural at whatever she does. She is fast, she hustles, she goes after the ball without hesitation.. it's just fun to watch her! I know there are a lot of photos of pretty much the same thing.. oh well.
Team Huddle before the game.. how does she sit like that?
Listening intently to coach
Lauren scores.. then almost steals! Eric had to tell her to stop shooting and pass the ball because she would just take the ball down the court and shoot...then repeat!
Having cocktails (beer and Dr. Pepper) at Huberts before the Timberwolves Game
Waiting for Elise to perform for the pre-game show.
My dad and my good friend Mallory joined us for the game.
Having some popcorn!
Elise and her cheerleading squad got to go out for a "pre-game" cheer at the Minnesota Timberwolves game. They did a great job! And Elise did her best cartwheel yet!
Elise, Paige, Haley and Avery (Paige's sister)
The girls went down to the tunnel to cheer the Timberwolves on as they came back out on the court for the second half. It was a little anti-climactic. They don't all come out as a team. They just come out one or two at a time, some walk, some run and then waitresses walk through with food and drinks... but they had fun! It was a great experience for them all.
Waiting for the Timberwolves to come back out onto the court for second half.
So we took the girls to the Mall of America for the first time. Elise had a cheer performance at the Minnesota Timberwolves game Saturday night. So we spent about 3 1/2 hours there and went on rides. This was the tamest coaster I have ever been on, the hill is tiny.. so Eric and my dad decided to make it look really scary in the photos! I was crying I was laughing so hard.
I think the girls rode this 7-8 times!
Dad and I went on the Rock Bottom Plunge.. it was fun!
This is Dad, Elise, Lauren and I on the Rock Bottom Plunge!

Me, Lauren and Eric... Lauren's first time through!
