52 Weeks of Happiness - Week 3

This past Sunday, our school district's girls' varsity basketball team won the state Federation title. We were excited to go greet them upon their return to the high school. We had a few hours to gather our poster board and markers to make some signs.


The daughter put a lot of detail on hers...Here is the husband's...

After thanking the crowd that had gathered, there was some important business to tend to. Apparently a bet had been made between the coach and his players. A set of hair clippers, a cape and a power source were brought out to get to work on his new reverse mohawk.
It didn't look any better from the back.
It was so much fun watching the team play this season. The four of us went to as many of the games as we could...cheering together and talking about what we saw. We got to see the #1 National recruit for girls' basketball display her amazing talent on our very own school's gymnasium floor. We got to see the entire team rise up to play with her. This is Breanna Stewart doing her television interview wearing a Burger King crown. (So fitting after coach spoke his piece with the new 'do.)

It makes me happy that we got to watch an incredible basketball season together, and with our friends. We may have only known one of the girls on the team, but it sure was easy to get caught up in the thrill! It makes me happy that my daughter has this awesome chick, Hannah, to look up to (and that her parents let us sit with them at the games)!
