Bleacher Butt.........

......For those of you who have children in school sports know this term very well!! If you don't have a clue, I will explain it briefly for you.

Bleacher Butt- What happens to one's bottom when one spends a lot of time sitting and watching school sporting events.

Last night we attended the local junior and varsity basketball games. My youngest daughter was involved in pom poms for the high school varsity basketball game. The high school pom pom squad gave a clinic for elementary and middle school kids to learn a pom pom routine. At half time during the varsity game the little girls were able to show off what they learned at the clinic. My daughter did very well and had loads of fun!!! I was a very proud daddy but had the start of Bleacher Butt.



Right now I am between sporting events for my children. We just returned from my oldest daughter's basketball game. They played very well as a team and out scored the other team by 30 points. My daughter did very well. She scored a basket and played very good defense. Scoring a basket in 6th grade girl's basketball is such a thrilling event. She plays guard and has a very pretty shot. One area that she needs to work on is her confidence level. She has great skills but often feels that she doesn't play as well as the other players on her team. Once she learns that she is a good player, I feel she will truly take off as a great player!!

Well, right now it is time to get ready for my youngest daughter's swim meet. I will report back on how my daughter did, when we return from the meet. I will also report on the status of my bleacher butt!!

Dusty,

I've been away for a while. Not feeling good for a bit and then it was tax season. Chained to my desk trying to sort out some crappy record keeping. Ugh.

I'm glad to be back and to have visited your site one again. Never heard the term 'bleacher butt,' but I could figure out basically what it meant. Sure gave me a laugh. Your poor butt!

Going to check out some of your posts - especially about the family, childrens' sports, your woodworking and Hot Springs.

Gotta catch up.
: )
Ivy.
