a day full of basketball

We sure had a day full of basketball- Josh's jr. high girls' tournament was today, in Saratoga this year. His B team was invited this year, and played Encampment first. The B team lost. :( Their next game was against Wamsutter for 5th and 6th place and won! So they ended up 5th place. That's pretty good for a bunch of 6th graders and some 7th graders! I sure felt bad for Wamsutter- they only have 5 tiny girls, and one of them is a 5th grader even. And one of their players kept fouling out of every game because she apparently thought the game was football and kept tackling girls.

Josh's A team played Encampment since Encampment won the first game and Josh's team had a bye, and Encampment surprised everyone by winning! Josh's team was bummed. But in the 3rd and 4th place game, they played Hanna and won, so they ended up in 3rd place.

Busy day for Brecken- Jeff and his girlfriend came over last night, and Craig and Lennie came over this morning. With all that and all the games, he didn't take a nap at all today. 10 minutes here, 10 minutes there, but that is worthless. So this evening after we got home, he was crying uncontrollably- he was just so tired and couldn't settle down. Josh and I ended up having to take him for a ride in the pickup and drove 40 miles to get him to sleep and stay that way. Poor guy. Then we got home and he woke up 10 minutes later of course. I fed him some more and he was smiling so we hung out in the living room for a while, then he got cranky so I fed him some cereal, put his jammies on, and put him to bed. He's been asleep for an hour now, so hopefully he'll stay that way for a long time! :)
