Ypsi

Ypsilanti tournament with the Romeo Raptors- back in June I think:)






This was a tough tournament- the boys played hard but we were not very successful- If I remember correctly, it was like 6 games in two days- and we only won 2! But they had fun as you can tell:)

It was also the night Matt had to leave from Ypsi to go to Fort Wayne and the boys and I came home to a dark house- a thunderstorm/tornado came through while we were gone and we had no power when we returned- we had to borrow a generator and run the fridge and the sump pump for three days, we also had to go to the Laundromat for three days what a bummer that was-

Okay my blogging friends

I need help!

Somehow my wonderful, thoughtful, amazingly athletic, poetic, pastor of a husband
volunteered me for something, but forgot to tell me........

Now I am sure that does not happen to anyone else but me, however now, here is my dilemma.

Our second son Aaron is playing on a Tournament basketball team. In July they are heading to nationals- it is a little bit pricey and they new jerseys, etc.... well, I have been volunteered to collect donations for prizes for a bowling tournament the team is providing as a fundraiser, wait, it get better- the bowling fundraiser is in two weeks! yikes!

Gift certificates to restaurants or stores, gift bags or boxes of different items, like lotions or cleaning supplies, board games or cards, maybe a basket of Michigan paraphernalia- oh I don't know, I am just thinking off the top of my head, anyway I am calling on help! If you possess or would be willing to purchase and submit for a donation, something you think would be a great prize-for the purpose of sending some 8Th grade basketball players to Fort Wayne this summer we would all be very appreciative, especially my absolutely adorable husband who is looking very sheepishly right now!:) gotta love them!

Road to Pinckney

The 8th graderes went undefeated and won the opportunity to go to Pinckney! An 8th grade tournament that their coach said at the begining of the year he would only take them if they went undefeated. you can find their scores on the left of the screen under Aarons basketball season. Anyway~ Pinckney is officially on for RMS and we depart the 14th of March

A couple of shots of Aaron warming up, then a team shot in front of the Road to Pinckney banner, then I forgot to change the setting and wanted one of Aaron alone in front of the banner but you have to see it in video form however he is not moving or saying anything worthy of a video, remeber a few posts ago I said I was still learning how to use it. This is one of those examples.
