Champions

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Last night, we drove to San Antonio to see the NCAA Basketball Championship.  Villanova was playing against Michigan.  With Villanova playing so close to us, Rachel and I decided we had to take the boys and experience everything.  We bought the tickets from a broker on Sunday.  They had a booth set up at a bar to pick up the tickets on Monday near the stadium.  We hit traffic driving down, which we assumed we'd hit.  Once we got there, we were able to get parking fairly easily.  We walked to the bar and got the tickets and then walked to a Denny's that was right near the stadium and ate.  It was, surprisingly, not crowded.  We ate quickly and walked to the stadium.

The stadium was very well organized and got you through security well before you'd give your tickets to get into the actual stadium.  The feeling in the area was like nothing I've ever felt at a sporting event.  Our seats were not bad.  We weren't far from mid-court and we were in the upper deck but in the 4th row.  We were able to see everything.  The boys loved it.  Evan kept taking pictures with his phone.  Noah told me how nervous he was.  When Villanova won, we were able to get Villanova Championship merchandise.  We also went to the lower level and watched some of the trophy presentation.

We got home around 1am.  The boys slept in the car on the way home.  Getting up was hard this morning, but the whole thing was worth it.  The experience was amazing.

Rachel had to teach and I went into the office.

Rachel didn't come with me to get Noah.  She wanted to get a little more rest.  Noah went to Grandma's after school.  Rachel tutored.

When Evan got home, I took him to TRPD for a pitching lesson.  He got some work in at catcher as well.

For dinner we had leftovers.

The boys will be getting ready for bed soon.

Until next time...
