Talk About BIG!!!

The boys have finally been fever free for a week so we headed to John Michael's basketball game.  It seems strange to be going on a Sunday, but it worked for us.  We went to Our Lady of Sorrows where we were met with boys who were HUGE!  Some of them were seriously more than twice the size of our guys.  Needless to say it was a rough game and they lost 22-0 and that would have been worse but the refs called the game in the third quarter.  Win or Lose I am not one to obsess but that was an unfair match up.  Oh well, Go Saints!

Plans Change

Since the boys were still down and out we missed the basketball game today.  Danny was not too happy, they were playing Our Lady of Sorrows, but he was glad to hear that they won.
The weather was rainy and gross so the photo shoot that I had planned was canceled.
It was a VERY rare calm Saturday for the Thach family.

Basketball and Families

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.

Shamrock Classic Basketball Champions

So today was a crazy day I woke up around 3 with a serious migraine. Like a made me sick migraine. Brandon took the boys to school because I just could not get it together. I seriously thought I would sleep it off in a few hours.

Well, the time came to get the boys, since they get out at 2 on Mondays it comes quick when you are hiding in the dark under the covers. The migraine still letting me know who was owning who so my seriously amazing husband went and got the boys and headed home early.

We had a game to get to and since I had no fever I was determined to be there for my baby who was only one win away from the championship. I had taken all that I had to take, that would leave me unzombie like for the game and when it was time we headed out.

We had to be there by 6:30, and we made it. My head was not a friend at all but I was trying. Thankfully Amy had some Tylenol and was so sweet to share. She could tell that I just could not handle anymore. I was praying for a win, because a loss would mean another game at 8:30. I was so hot, another good sign that there was no fevers happening, just migraine issues.

The game started at 7:10 and we were up against Prince of Peace again. It was a close game at first, but by the second half our boys were making serious progress and we were announced the Shamrock Champions! GO SAINTS!!! This was the 5th Shamrock Classic Tournament win for the 3rd-4th grade boys for St. Francis! Super super proud. The boys all got a medal, a certificate, and a St. Patrick's statue. The school has the Shamrock Classic Plaque for one year and a new beautiful first place trophy! Congratulations to Coach Adam and all of the boys!

John Michael was able to announce Danny's name at the end of the game which made the night as special for him as it wasfor Danny! I am so proud of both my boys! I think we might have to invest in a trophy cabinet for our house!
