Go VOLS!

That is the UT Volunteers for those of you who didn't know. And let me tell you that if you aren't a UT fan around these parts, you aren't anybody!

A man at our church, Cardy, called Justin Friday night and asked him if he and the boys wanted to go to a UT scrimmage basketball game. Well, I was on my way out the door to meet with a doula client and Justin had all three boys. He decided to "carpe diem", packed the kids in the van and headed for Knoxville. He wore Hayden in the backpack and the big guys had their own seats! They loved the game. It just happened to be the largest crowd for a scrimmage game in TN history, with a whopping 19 thousand people. Kudos to Justin for single-parenting his way through a massive crowd of people and a noise and energy-filled stadium!

Justin said Hayden did well except he lookied a bit worried when things got really loud. Asher said his favorite part of the game were the "pom poms." "Sometimes they spin," he said. "And sometimes they don't." I think this experience has definitely started them on their way to becoming die-hard UT fans. Thanks Cardy!

Sprite and popcorn at the game! "I love sports!" Elias tells us.


Go BIG ORANGE!


Love to all,
