You win some...you lose some

Yep- sad to say. They lost their first game 5-4. All is not for loss though. They still have 2 more to go. They need to do well tomorrow!

The boys did spend 12 hours in an airport yesterday just waiting for their flight. Kevin and Coach Ricci caught an earlier plane, but the boys plane was delayed and they were put through the ringer. So sad I didn't travel with the team...

I got up this morning. Caught a ride to the airport, thanks to Kevin's dad, bright and early. 5:15AM we left. Got to the airport, checked in, found my gate. Slight delay. No big deal. Here is the best part though. I was on a tiny plane. Not a prop plane, but tiny one none the less. I go to my seat, and there was already someone in the seat next to me. Looks like a business man. Oh no! Tiny plane, no room, business man! How am I gonna nurse Avery?

So I sit down and smile at him. "I just want to warn you ahead of time that I am going to nurse her while we take off. I just don't want to offend you." He laughs. "I am an obstetrician!" Can you believe it? How great is that! So needless to say, he was not offended, and we ended up having a fabulous conversation most of the way down to Dallas. It was a great flight.

Now we are settled in for the evening at the hotel. The boys just had their nightly meeting about how they are gonna do well tomorrow. HAVE to do well tomorrow. Now Kevin is doing bed checks. Making sure the boys are in their rooms. I asked if he also tucked them in and read them stories. He said he sure did. ;)

Well, good night and wish us well for tomorrow's game.


BTW- our house is still standing. Maga and Papa are still in control- mostly. And everyone made it where they were supposed to go today. Yeah!
