Lady Eagles Escape The Quarter Finals

The Lady Eagles escaped the quarter finals Saturday night in an exciting double overtime win!

Abbey was crushed as she had two opportunities to put the other team away at the foul line (that’s four shots at the basket).  All four shots were great shots, but didn’t have enough luck on them to fall in the bucket.

No matter though, the Lady Eagles got it done for her!

This puts them in the Semi Finals next week, or maybe the Championship game if that was the Semi’s, and I’m all confused.

It was a blast!

Maggie again played well.

Someone please shoot me.

Oh the Great Smokey Mountains!

Last weekend we had a mini-vacation.

Molly had a gymnastics meet in Gatlinburg Tenn. The tourist trap of the mid-west. We decided to make it a mini-family vacation and stay there for a couple days in a cabin/chalet in the mountains.

Much fun was had.

By the time we unpacked, checked out the place, figured out where everyone was sleeping, and finally hit the sack it was about 2:30 before we got any shut eye.
