Upward Complete...

Saturday was Carter's last upward basketball game, and then last night was Upward Celebration night.  Carter had such a great time playing basketball this year, and his coach was so good with his team.
 
Since Bentonville had school on Saturday there were several kids that couldn't make the game.  And the team we were playing only had 4 players while we had 6, therefore, we gave them one of our players (Carter) so that they could play 5 on 5.  I was so proud of Carter for volunteering to go over to the other team, even though he was so excited to play with his teammates.
 I definitely see a difference in Carter's ability from the first week to the last, and I think he enjoyed it even more toward the end...

 Here he is with his original team doing their last huddle and star awards...Carter got the Christ-like star because he gave of himself for others...again SO proud...
 
On another note, #34 is Camden, and he was the only one on the team that hadn't scored a basket all season.   ALL the boys tried all morning to get him the ball even when they had the open shot, and let me tell you he made a perfect basket in the last quarter.  We were all so excited, as were the boys!  Kudos to all the boys who gave up shots for Camden to make one...what teamwork!
 Carter and Coach Chris...
 Carter and Coach Chad (his coach for the last game)
 And these 2 boys are crazy...not only did Carter switched teams on Sat., but Jaxon did too.  What good boys!
