Basketball Playoffs




Last night, AJ's team had their playoff game in basketball. The teams were very excited. There was a lot of nail biting, upset stomachs and pacing. And those were the parents. 

You will notice in this picture that AJ has something all over his arms and legs. That would be marker. It was "Crazy Day" at school the other day and he came down for breakfast covered in marker. My choices were to get mad or compliment his creativity. I went with option "B". We were hoping that the other team would think he had some exotic disease and refuse to guard him. No such luck. But he did manage to get a few baskets, and even a foul shot.










 The kids played hard. Really hard. They sweated. A lot. If they sweat this much when they are 9, what is it going to be like when they are 19?. It will be like going to a Gallagher show. 

It was a very close game and ended up going into overtime. We won by two points. Tonight is the playoff game. Keep your fingers crossed for us!
