Snow...day 1 of at least 2

Today we awoke to a small snow. We got to stay home all day. We played in the snow briefly this morning. Sam didn't know what to think if the snow. She kept going back and forth looking out the windows. 
Anyway it was not good packing snow. We found out around 5 that we get another day off because there is another unpresidented round developing. This next round is actually being forecast unlike the one last night. Which makes me question whether it will happen or not. Either way we are out. It is supposed to be a big mess if ice, rain and snow and not be over until Thursday morning. So we shall be in a holding pattern. I look at it as free days to watch the Winter Olympics. Go USA.

Last win over Red and Lego Movie

Today you played your last game against the Red team and won. This has always been a very rough group to play because of the way they double team people. You got 4 points of the 9 for your team. 
You had a group of fans again today. Lolo, Mamaw Brenda, Alex, Beth, David and I cheered you on. Both Caleb and Zach scored today too!  Caleb actually almost fought a kid that shoved him. 
After the game we all went to Champy's and ate. You, Lolo and Mamaw went to watch the Lego movie. I went home to watch the Olympics and to do taxes. You enjoyed the movie but it was so crowded y'all had to sit on the front row and Mawmaw had to sit with Griffen's family who happened to be there too. 
I think Lolo bought you several things today. I know something about a popcorn maker and a turtle puppet. They also got you doughnuts and Papa John's pizza. This is the first time you have seen Lolo since our trip to the mountains after Christmas.

What a week...again!

Without going into great details this has been a very mentally tasking week. Thankfully it didn't involve you too much. We had a major issue that shook the school involving several students and a very prominent youth minister, Dr Stegall's mother passed away, and just a busy week was scheduled without these hard times.  On a bright note you got your progress report and it had all A's, one was an 89.6 which rounds. It kinda upset you. Also, McBride got two new ducks for the outdoor classroom and y'all voted on names. You wanted Papa John's and Saidie, but Quacker and Cheese won instead. You thought that was too silly, I thought it was funny.  We went last Saturday and visited both granny Porter and granny Hampton. Today you had a great game. You scored 11 of the teams 19 points for a victory over green.
You had a large crowd supporting you tonight. Colton, Carson, Cooper, Carolyn, Mamaw Brenda, Mamaw Kathy, Pawpaw Roger and I cheered you on. It was by far one of the best games I have seen you play.

What a week

We have had a great week. It's seemed long, mainly because of the frigid temps. 
But it has been good. We were home by 4 three days this week and only stayed late the other two days because of basketball. Which by the way you won again today. 10-6 against the Red team.

Intense and Proud

Tonight you played two ball games. One at the Rec center and one at the High School. Unfortunately y'all lost the first one 10-7. But you played an excellent game and handled the loss instyle. For that I'm proud. 
Y'all won the second one at the High School. You played regular baskeball with fast breaking allowed. It was like watching a regular basketball game.

Rest?

We had a day off from school today. So we took advantage of the 65 degree January day. It's supposed to be cold the rest if the week. 
So we marked off a baskeball court for you to practice and I worked in the yard. We finally burned some boxes too. We went to the mausoleum today for mommies birthday and ate supper with Mamaw Brenda. We found out granny Porter is in the hospital with heart problems again and Mawmaw Kathy is having a severe allergic reaction to something. Lolo is also having difficulty from a dental procedure. Aside from all the bad news we had an enjoyable day. It may not have been "rest" but it was fun to be home.

Wow is all I can say

The scoreboard says it all. Start of the 4th and zero all.  It has been a very physical game.
And apparently we have over time!
And after overtime we still have a tie!  Physical game!
