...State Basketball...

We love to watch sports! So it has really been awesome that McKay has a job that is centered around sports and the athletes! Basketball season is always one of my favorites because my little brother Isaac plays on the Varsity team and I really enjoy watching him play the sport he truly has a passion for! This season was a fun one! I went to almost every game and my kids just plugged right along with me! I have some awesome pics of Issac playing but I will save that for another post! This post will be about State! State is broken up into 2 different weekends! The first weekend is the play-in games! If you win you move on to the next week and if you lose your season is done! So it is a really big weekend! The play-in games were at Orem High School this year! The girls played Friday night and the boys played Saturday morning! So we headed up Friday after school! Once we got to Orem we stopped and ate at Firehouse Subs because Carter loves that place!

Cheeto Face!

After we ate we headed to the girls game! The boys basketball team were being duds about cheering so McKay went over and helped them out the second half!

McKay is on the front row in the white shirt!

Yes my husband is that awesome!

The girls WON... barely! It was too close for comfort!

After the game we hustled to the hotel and jumped in our swimming suits! Carter absolutely loves staying at hotels and this is why! Because we get to swim!

The boys played the next morning! They won also... it wasn't their best played game but they did get the job done! So both teams were going to State!!! YAY!

The following weekend  State was on Thursday, Friday and Saturday the boys played early in the morning on Thursday and the girls played late at night that same day!

The kiddos playing while we waited for our game to start!

We didn't forget the wolf costume! We put it on for the 4th quarter for an extra boost for the boys! The WON! They ended up beating Merit Academy 62-49

Waiting for Dad to finish up with the team!

Watching the next game! The iPad saves me from chasing Carter all around!

After half a game we headed back to the hotel and swam before we watched the girls game late that night!

Only ones in there!

My kids love to swim!

After we swam for a couple hours we went and got something to eat and then headed back to the gym to watch the girls!

Carter playing in sister's carseat! I brought it in hoping Baylee would fall asleep and I could just lay her in there but she was to stubborn! The game didn't even start till 9:10!

The girls won their game! Both teams were playing awesome! Friday the girls played early afternoon and the boys played late evening! We had a lazy morning! 

Carter watched t.v. while Mom got ready!

Baylee got into everything!

Carter and McKay went swimming that morning while I got Baylee bathed and down for a morning nap! After they got down swimming Carter came back and got ready and played the iPad while McKay finished up showering...

and I had to get this picture of Carterman! He looked serious!

Nap Time!

Sister woke up and Carter had to get in and play with her!

Love my kiddos! So so cute! I mean look at her face... I just want to kiss her!!! 

We headed to the girls game and they won!!! They were going to the Championship game! Awesome! Later that night we watched the boys and they beat South Summit in OT 64-56! So both our teams were playing in the 2A State Championship games on Saturday!

Baylee completely exhausted from a long day of ball! Barely made it through her bottle! The boys went down swimming again! Surprise surprise!

Next day was a fun day!

Chesser!

Headed to the park for a bit before a long night in the gym!

Loved the swing as long as she didn't go high!

Love her smile!

Going down the crazy slide!

Thought he wanted the baby swing decided the big kid one is lots more fun!

Then we headed to a gym and had a community Pep Rally for both the boys and girls basketball teams!

Face painting!

Isaac's biggest fan Club!

Baylee playing with some cute girls!

Carter's cool face paint!

Baylee trying on a necklace!

We cheered and had some Pep talks and cheered the kids on before they all headed out the door to head to the gym!

Watching the kids play!

Found some snacks in Mom's bag and took a seat!

Cute kids!

Carter and Mom! Ready to cheer loud!

Kids wouldn't cooperate! Best family pic we could get!

Once we played around for a bit we headed to the game and watched the girls and they kicked BUTT! State CHAMPS!

Baylee, Amanda, Maddie and Josie some of my favorite girls!

Great Job Ladies!

Boys walking into the game!

Kids were done with games by this point!

We cheered so loud I lost my voice!

The boys fell short! They played so hard and it was a tough team to be matched up against! I won't go into details but our boys played so good! I am so proud of them for making it as far as they did! The boys teams haven't made it that far in forever! It has been so long! I love my brother! He did amazing! I love his fight! I hope he keeps working hard!

I love this kid!
