Monday I played Will one on one at the hoop down the street and beat him, even with an aching shooting shoulder and a touch of asthma. Thursday Will’s team scrimmaged, and Will said he scored 16 points over 3 games. They scrimmaged again Friday afternoon.
The big football game at Thanksgiving and Christmas is what Will lives for. He’s the second best young guy, but us 4 old guys make up for athletism with experience. It’s more of an argument than football game…I only play to make the sides even. Ceil took some good pictures that I may post on my blog. There were 6 youngsters ranging from 18 to 13…Matthew was the only cousin not to play, but this was the first year 2 of the non-athletic boys played the whole game.
Usually the van gets 22 MPG going 74 MPH. At 69 MPH it got 26 going east and 27 going west.
ESPN interviewed the Bull’s Ben Gordon about Skiles being fired…Gordon’s eyes and ears made him look like a Vulcan. I remember when Skiles played a Michigan State!
We had some ups and downs…
…Saturday we went to a fun caroling party.
…drove to SC Sunday after a good Christmas service at NP.
…Monday not much happened…dinner at an uncle’s. Will, Matthew, and I went early to hit golf balls in his back yard, which was fun.
…fun football game on Tuesday afternoon, but Matthew got into a scuffle with a 14-year old cousin. At least he stood up for himself, for that I was proud. I’ll tell you the rest of the story next week.
Took our time and got back around 6:30 last night.
Will’s Guitar Hero Wii game is hilarious…lots of old heavy metal songs. Better than Anna’s ‘sing-along with High School Musical’ game.
