Alex also wrapped up his 6th grade AAU basketball season with a big tournament win! He had a his own cheering section as Sara brought the boys, Graham and Connor, down for the weekend as well as both his grandmas were there, his grandpa, and his uncle Randy and aunt Lori caught the end of the tournament. Lots of family there to watch. Surprisingly, his grandpa was even quiet this time and didn't have to yell too much (hahaha Grandpa). His team faced three really good teams and pulled out three wins with it. Nice way to end the season! Alex played fabulous ball all three games. He was sad to see basketball come to an end, as were we.
Alex continues to work out 4 days a week before and after school. He is on a pretty busy schedule, but he doesn't realize so is everyone else He doesn't like the morning weight lifting 2 days a week before school simply because he doesn't like to get up. He enjoys the after-school weight lifting 2 days a week after school because he is lifting with the high school boys in the weightroom at the high school. After 2 weeks of lifting with them (and his cousin, Brandon, who is a senior in high school), Alex came down to my classroom sweating head to toe, feeling pretty cocky, and said, "Mom, I know I am going to have a six pack by summer time!" I just smiled.
So, as you can see, Alex is busy with weightlifting as well as baseball. He has hitting and practice for baseball two days a week as well. Never a dull moment that is for sure!
Great basketball season Alex! Can't wait to watch some baseball!
