Spring Break rolled around for us and boy did we need the break!! If only to catch up on some sleep!! The kids started the week off by sleeping in their sleeping bags in the den - one of their favorite things to do! They love to stay up late and watch the Disney Channel while lying in their sleeping bags. Avery has graduated to the couch now - but she enjoys it just the same.
On Monday night, we all headed to the Bancorp South Center to see the Harlem Globetrotters! What a fun time! None of us - including Terry and me - had ever seen them before, so we were pumped up! It was a lot of fun watching the antics and tricks of the Globetrotters. They really put on a show. We liked the dunks, the twirling the ball on their fingers and and the cool ball handling tricks they could do. We even sugared up on cotton candy! I think Terry and I might have had more fun than the kids!!

Here they come - the Harlem Globetrotters!!
Some ball handling tricks! Pretty cool!
Taking off the sweats
We thought this thing was funny
An Encore!
Sometime during the first of our week off, we got out our ping pong table. The kids have been dying to get it out, so we set it up in the garage for the entire week. Just like the Globetrotters, I think Terry and I had more fun with it than the kids. We had some heated games and I refused to quit until I beat him at least once! Which I finally did! Avery, Anna and Tanner played with many of the neighborhood kids and got pretty good. It wasn't too bad not parking our cars in the garage for a week to get some ping pong action!
Our kids are all about playing! So other than the ping pong, the Globetrotters and a movie, the kids spent the week playing!! I love that they LOVE to play outside, so it was a great week for them to do that with their favorite neighbors, Brianna and Zachary.
We ended the week by going to Oxford to see an Ole Miss baseball game. It was our first visit to the stadium since they expanded it, and it is NIIIICE! The Rebels won the game in the bottom of the ninth inning when a runner scored on a wild pitch! Exciting!
Gotta have those snacks! Actually, this was supper!
I had to put this in. For some reason, I love to watch them drag the field!
Rebels win! Rebels win!
On Sunday, after church, we finally had Anna's church basketball team's party. We ate lots of pizza and passed out pictures and trophies. Only 4 of the 7 players were able to be there, but we all had a good time. I was honored to be able to coach Anna's team and it was a true blessing. The girls were GREAT! They really listened - well, for the most part - and improved in every game. But most of all, I think they all had fun. It was a fun season - and a winning one! - even though we don't keep score (yeah, right!).
Some of Anna's teammates: Avery Claire Littleton, Savannah Hudgins, Anna and Allie Hall
No trips this Spring Break - but still a lot of fun! And yes, the sleeping late was one of the best parts - for me at least!
