While it was flooding in Calgary, and we are talking major disaster flooding, we got to go to Utah for Carson's basketball team. It was 40 degrees Celsius in Utah and the only way to stay cool was to be in water outside. It didn't take the boys long to figure out how to stay cool!
All that is required is a few buckets filled with hose water.
And if you want to prevent sunburn you just put the lids on!
peek a boo!!
Nothing better than playing in the sun with cousins.
Carter, Jordan, and Weston
Jordan just loves doing tricks on the trampoline these days.
When the buckets got boring the boys rigged up their own water slides.
Meanwhile Carson was playing in a basketball tournament with his Genesis club team. They only had 7 players there and they ended up playing 5 games in a 25 hour period. It was a little crazy but they had fun. Carson took a terrible fall in the last game where he was going up for a layup and 2 guys took his legs out from under him. He fell backwards really hard with no hands or anything to help cushion the fall. The sound of the bang of his head on the floor was just sickening. I am usually pretty calm and collective when my kids get injured but I have to admit that I jumped out of my seat when his head landed on the floor and he didn't move right away. He finally came to and the first thing out of his mouth was "Did I make the layup?" Of course they called the foul but wouldn't let him take his foul shots because he had to be checked out for a concussion. One of his teammates took the foul shots while the doctors checked Carson. They wouldn't let him play the rest of that half of the game.
These pictures are not from the tournament in Utah because I forgot to take my camera to the games. These are a few pics from their league games at SAIT.
