The trundle situation!

It made it thru 2 but just not 3!

The trundle bed last thru my brothers Scott and Will

and carried me thru my college years

and has served my two boys very well too.

But it was no match for the three...Sam, Joe and Drew.

No match at all.

But it is ok says Joe he likes it this way, all crooked and such.

Suits him I think...I mean he is quirky anyway.

See those blankets, he doesn't like the new pretty comforter that matches Sam's,

so it is folded in the closet to avoid the fight.

Right now he sleeps with this feet and legs in a pillow case (that won't remain on his pillow)

and covered with 1 or 2 of the blankets that grandma made, no others, no others will do!

So until the tools come out, the little boy will be quite happy with his crooked broken bed!

Sam's Yball Medal

After church and lunch at home Sam's

day of basketball started...the last of a full day of basketball for

this year.  He started at biddyball.

He enjoys this because all of his school friends are here.

It is all fundamentals and we know those are super important.

We also wanted to expose him to playing a game so he does Yball too

His yball team has been fun too

His coach Rod is so patient and kind to all of them

several also go to his school

He played pretty good today and was pretty agressive

They got their medals, look at those smiles

He also played his friend Brody

And Joe got to play the whole time with Brody's brother Brent

It was a great season!



SmallTown Indiana Basketball

It was posted of facebook a couple of time yesterday...

Why would a town of 2756 need a basketball gym to seat 4500?

Why would you need to arrive at the gym when the doors open to get the seat you want

or even 45 minutes before to get a seat at all?  

It is small town southern Indiana basketball.

It was a packed house at Jack Butcher Arena last night.

Many had come to cheer on the defending state champs

State Champs

And while the Barr-Reeve Vikings boasted a #3 ranking in the state and a nearly

perfect record...that one loss came from Loogootee early in the season.

And while both teams have many fans that can root for IU together, when it comes

to local ball each has their favorite!

Barr-Reeve came out the victor last night.

But the fans from both sides were there to cheer on their team.

Our senior cheerleader Morgan made us proud in cheering on the Lion fans

in their yellow state champs FAN shirts.  The cheer block was loud and the cheer block 

was proud of their Loogootee Lions.

My favorite part was after the game and after the loss when the cheer block chanted

Loogootee Lions and Thank You Seniors.  

And our Senior Sarah was one of the loudest fans.

Best of luck to the BR Vikings as they advance to the next round.

Represent small town southern Indiana ball!
