~ ~ ~ No More Ballgames ~ ~ ~

Well, yesterday Zoe, Brandy (also known as "Sissy"), & I ventured out about 9 AM & returned about 9 PM. A full 12 hours of ......what else?......You guessed it.........basketball games!!! At first Zoe was excited because she was going to see her cousin Haley play as well as Meredith (Haley's twin brother Ian's girlfriend). She quickly realized was that we were not just at the gym to watch one game, but at least three. (She wasn't too thrilled!) You see, it was a tournament with pool play. Brandy & I had planned on staying for the entire duration since we both love high school basketball. Zoe was okay for a while visiting with Kathy & Jimmy (Haley's parents) & Phillip (Haley's boyfriend) ,but after the second game of the day, she fell asleep on my lap for about an hour. Unfortunately, Haley did not win either game she played. Here's a few pictures of Haley in action:

Being announced for the starting line up.....

Shooting a free throw....(which she made!)

Getting ready to box out........

Wonder what she's thinking........

Waiting for the shooter to release the ball......

I must admit that Zoe was very good considering we saw a total of 5 basketball games! As we were driving home Zoe says, "Do we have to go to another basketball game tomorrow?" I proudly replied, "No not tomorrow." (I wasn't about to tell her that two nights this coming week we will be attending basketball games.) Tuesday night we are headed to E.J.'s college game. He will be playing against our neighbor Kyle. And, on Wednesday night Zack & Ian have their first home high school games. Won't she be thrilled when we're in the car headed for those?!
