Question Still Basketball Season

Some of you know that I love taking photos at my kids' sporting events. We were in St. Louis, MO, this past weekend for Tyler's AAU basketball team's tournament. Here's a few of the shots that I took.



Tyler is #21.

Believe me, I go cuckoo when there isn't any sports going on for my boys.

Great action shots. Is Tyler blocking out for a rebound?

Thumbs up You always leave me wondering if they made the basket

Great shots, Lori! (haha, get it? "shots" ) Love the look of anticipation on Tyler's face in #2 and the kid taking the shot in #3 is really off the ground!

Great action! Nice work.
