So today we had to split up to make it to all of the basketball games.
John Michael played at 9:00 at Our Lady of the Valley. They ended up losing, but only by one point and that was because of a goal during the last minute of the game.
Danny played at St. Francis and they played great. They won and had the best time. There is a lot of talent on Danny's team and I know that Coach Adam is a great coach and has really helped Danny come a long way in basketball.
After basketball and some quiet time at home I had to go to Grayson Valley for a family photo shoot. Danny wanted to come with me and be my helper which I always enjoy. I love spending time with my boys even if it is while I am working. The family shoot was great, and it was really great to see Kim and her family after a few years of simply keeping in touch on FaceBook.

Basketball and Fundraisers
So this morning started with a lot of rain and a basketball game. At 8:00 in the morning we were at St. Francis, it was sort of like every other day. Except the boys were in red and white instead of navy and white. Looked just as handsome though.
John Michael played first. They ended up playing the same team from Our Lady of the Valley that we played last week. The end score was 10-0, not in our favor. The boys had a good time though, and they are definitely getting more aggressive. Maybe tomorrow will be our day. We play again tomorrow.
Since we had several hours before Danny's game we came on home and I tried to get some photographs edited and some homework done. It never ends, but it is all good. I actually got a good bit done and was super thankful for that.
Danny's game was at 2:00 at Our Lady of Sorrows. For the first time they lost. It was a tough game, a lot of rough playing, bad calls, and bad sportsmanship. They were ready for our guys. They had double coverage on two of our guys almost the whole game. It was a hard game. The boys played their hardest down to the last second literally. I am super proud of them. It was a sad day for them, but they should be proud, they played hard and next time they will be ready for them.
Well, we headed to Subway for dinner/lunch and then I rushed to get ready for the fundraiser I was photographing for The Independence Place. This is an amazing thing and while it is a small part I am so glad to be a part of something that is truly going to improve life for so many people.

Toy Bowl Week 2

So I have to say I love a Saturday of Basketball with my boys. I love watching them play any sport, but I am seriously starting to enjoy basketball the most. The toy bowl is the tournament that the Catholic Schools play and it is definitely a big deal.
John Michael's game was first, he played at Our Lady of the Valley at 9:00. They all played great and were so improved from last week. They lost, 10-6, but they had a great time. John Michael made his VERY first goal ever! It was during warm ups, so I did not have out my camera yet which made me a little sad, but I was so excited! Definitely a proud momma moment!

Danny's game was at 1:00 at St. Rose Academy. We had a little time to kill so we went to Cost Plus World Market on 280. Very dangerous, had I had more money I could have spent a lot. I loved their furniture and they had some GREAT props for pictures. I had a gift card that I had had for several years so we used that. The boys each got a surprise and then I got some Christmas gifts! I also got 2 valentine's champagne flutes. They are so pretty and will look great in my glass collection. Then we headed to Subway for lunch.
Danny's game time finally arrived and the boys were ready, and that is putting it mildly. They did great. Danny even got his hands on the ball during the game. He usually sets up a pick but is not aggressive otherwise. I was glad to see him getting in the mess. They won 30-16.
GO SAINTS! That is for both of my boys and their teams!
I had a session at 3:00 at Miss Kelley's Dance Studio in Trussville. It went great. For more on it watch the blog at http://www.monicaannephotography.com/
