Regular Basketball Season Comes to an End

We knew that today was going to be a busy one. It started with basketball.

John Michael had a game at 10:00 at St. Francis. They played Our Lady of the Valley and even though they did not win they had a blast. They only lost by one point, and I do not even think most of them realized that they lost. I love the fact that they had such a good time. This whole season they have all gotten better, they have really turned into some aggressive players, which is so fun to watch. I hate that they ended the season with a loss, but they played great and as far as I am concerned that is a plus and the season ended on a high note. I am seriously going to miss basketball, already ready for next year and John Michael's first grade basketball season.

Danny's game was a 12:00 so we just hung out, which worked. We watched the girls 6-8th grade team play at 11, and let me just say WOW! Those girls are seriously amazing!

Danny's game was against Our Lady of Fatima and well, it was a good game even though not called 100% fairly. They had our guys shooting free throws from one line and their guys shooting from another. There did not seem to be a boundary line on the court for their team either. It was rough. They ended up losing too, which was a serious bummer, but all is good, they still were second in the Toy Bowl regular season! GO SAINTS!!! I was super proud of how well they played and how much sportsmanship they showed given what they were up against.

We then headed out to do things that John Michael wanted to do for his birthday since he was in school for his. We went to Toys R Us, where he spent his gift card from Santa. Then we headed to the Galleria. That is what he wanted for dinner. LOL! Seriously, he is a trip. We also went to Build A Bear where the boys both made an Alvin, then to eat and ride the carousel and then we went to the Lego store. While we were riding the carousel we saw our dearest friends the Hughes' family. I love running into Amy when I least expect it, it just makes so many things seem better. Plus I really missed her so it made seeing her even better. :0)

While we were at the Lego Store Danny had a bad nose bleed. It was crazy for a few minutes but we got it under control and headed home. It was a busy day but a really great one with my amazing family!
