163/365 ~ Skippolini's

Cell phone pic, not the greatest BUT we couldn't let the moment slip away...

We do not have cable or any form of televised tv at our house (yes, we have a tv, but use it for movies and games only), so when the Spurs are playing the Heat in the NBA finals and the games are really, really good we just can't miss out on all of them. So out to eat we went, to a place where we could watch most of it.

Three out of four of us were very entertained and the one that wasn't chose to entertain herself, LOL...

At the end of the night, the Spurs had thoroughly spanked the Heat on their own home court, winning game four of the NBA finals.

Coach ~ 41/365

Tonight was the night of the team party. The boys got to hang out together one last time before going separate ways again for another seven months. Most of them go to different schools. If some don't return next year, it may be the last time they see each other.

Coach Kevin promises to be back next year, bringing with him not only his knowledge of the game, but also his deep desire to see these boys grow into men of good character. For this we are thankful, and also a bit sad to see the season end.

Season Finale ~ 32/365

His final game of the season. Sadly, they did not win. But they did play hard and I'm very proud of them.

This season was hard for the boys. I think adjusting to jr. high ball was a bit of a surprise in the beginning. There are teams with much bigger boys. We're talking boys who you look at and think, I wanna see their birth certificates. Okay not really, but you get the idea. Here's to next year!

Wrap Me In Your Arms ~ 26/365

The kids performed "Wrap Me in Your Arms" in church today. Bethany is in blue, third from the left, and Elisha is behind the girl in pink. Unfortunately I couldn't get a better angle to get him in the picture too.

Bonus Picture:

Elisha had a great game today, it was intense, and he played hard. They still lost, by a lot unfortunately. They just couldn't get their shots to go in. :(

Today's Crowd ~ 19/365

T had some special people in town today so they stopped in to watch the boys play. 

Yay! They won again too! The boys are finally on a roll. Too bad there's only two more games left. Sniff... sniff...

BTW.... Yohn and Elisha were half right about the Superbowl predictions...  ;0)

Game View ~ 12/365

The view from our seat for game #7. Elisha is on the right.
