I arrived home from Hollywood Kids at 6:30 only to smell the dinner which was not quite ready and quickly fix the boys a sandwich before their games. I dropped Collin off at 7:00 and quickly ran to Braeden's church basketball game. They are in a tournament and were scheduled to play the toughest team. It was a great game. Our boys played hard and only had six players. The other team had about ten players to send in fresh legs. The score was 54-54 in overtime with seconds on the clock. Our team inbounded the ball to Braeden, who quickly turned and shot a three-pointer. As the ball was sailing toward the basket the buzzer went off and then SWOOSH!!! The crowd erupted! The team went crazy and picked him up and his mama couldn't help screaming for joy! He scored 26 points.
I congratulated Braeden and quickly ran to Collin's baseball game. In the final inning Collin was pitching. He had caught one fly ball, picked up a grounder and threw another kid out at first and had the tying run on third when he struck out the final batter! Another happy ending,
It was a great night for ballgames. Sometimes you're the hero and get the big win other times you're not so fortunate.
We arrived home at 10:00. I helped Katelynn with her homework til 11:30 and then had to start a new day at 5:20 a.m. Sheesh. No wonder I don't have time to blog!!!! hee hee
More fun news...Braeden was moved up to the varsity volleyball team and is playing in La Jolla, California right now. Katelynn and Caroline are at birthday parties and Collin and Tom ran to the store. I think this is longest amount of alone time I've had all day! Wooo hooo

Wahoo!! Way to go Braeden and Collin!!!
And good job Katelynn keeping your mom up so late!
Aren't those few moments worth it all!!!
Some games are better than other, huh!
Did Braeden return with honor from his trip?? haha...
So good to see you in the blogging world!
And congrats to your stellarly athletic sons.
I can't remember the last time I have had alone time like that, where they were actually all gone out of the house...definitely not while we lived in this house.
My only alone time is if they are sleeping (or I am hiding for a minute). I am afraid that season of kids in and out all day will come far too quickly. I keep telling my girls to stop growing up, but they don't seem to listen.
There may be a few moments of nobody at home, but there's a lot more running around. I used to think it would get easier when the kids got older. That's a laugh!!!
Okay all the performances are over, you can blog again :) I found yours from Carla's. Cute stuff :)
