Basketball and Geocaching

Today was a great day. Kylee finished up her basketball season and I was very impressed at how much she learned throughout the 5 weeks of basketball. She went from being a ball hog to learning to pass to her open teammate. She was also a very good leader for the younger ones on the team, it was fun to hear the girls shout pass it to Kylee. I really think Kylee enjoyed playing this year and I hope she continues to enjoy the game (mostly because I don't want my kids to be cheerleaders or dance team members).
After Kylee's games we decided to get out of the house and go do some geocaching. Since her games were in New Plymouth I did some research and found a backroad that had a bunch of caches. So off we went, the kids had a great time, I think they were glad to get back to treasure hunting after being cooped up all winter. It was so fun to watch them use the gps's and actually find the caches. Kylee sure had the eye for them today, she is a little competitive like her mother and she was racing to find it first. I know she found a couple of them before me, but I think I still have her beat!! We ended up finding 15 caches today and on four of them we were the first to finds (that means we were the first ones to find a new cache that had been placed), we set a new family record on number of caches found in a day. I am getting more and more excited about the weather turning nice just so we can hit the mountains and do some more caching.
