Family Sports nights

At the beginning of the summer I was trying to figure out which camps and classes to put the kids in, but at the same time not really looking forward to forking out money and driving the kids around town.  I thought it would be cool if there was a camp where the kids learn the basics of a lot of different sports.  Then one day I had this idea...  It felt like a "DOYYY!" moment!  Scott and I could teach them quite a few sports on our own, and it would be good family time at the same time!  Then hatched "Lee Family Sports Nights!"  The kids were really excited about it!  Scott wasn't sure, but decided to go along with another of my crazy ideas.  So far we have had baseball week, soccer week, basketball week, and tennis week.  My crazy little idea has actually worked!  The kids are really learning the sports, getting along great, getting exercise, they are learning to listen to the advice of their parents (!) and on and on.  Scott and I have really enjoyed being "coaches" and teaching our kids to love sports we love.  I can't say it's been perfect since we have had a couple of meltdowns mostly cause kids can be stubborn and get discouraged easily, but it's been awesome to see them pick themselves back up and learn to be better sports.

Now I have more ideas floating around in my head... :)
