Sweet Victory

Last night there was a pretty, ahem, big game on for the folks of our fair city.  So big, in fact, that I blew my reputation as the sleep nazi and agreed to let the big monkeys stay up to watch despite a 9:21 pm tip off time.  We popped popcorn, loaded up on sugary treats, and enjoyed a comfortable 20 point lead and time all together.

Except this monkey, who lasted until about 9:22 pm.

Hey, have I ever mentioned that we are good luck for sports teams?  The Raven's won the Superbowl when we lived in B'more, the Patriots won the Superbowl twice (or maybe 3 times?) and the Red Sox won the World Series when we lived in Boston.  And now UNC has won the NCAA tournament.  Not a bad track record, eh?

Such a cool mom.
So, does your lucky streak work on lotteries too?

Cute little guy. We were actually in Detroit with the Mulitalos for the final four. It was a blast! I was pretty neutral on the outcome but wouldn't have minded a better game! The 20 point spread didn't make for the most exciting game. UNC was well represented though and played great! I remember being at your house when the Ravens won the superbowl. That was pretty exciting!

We would love for you to move here to the DC area, but I don't think that would do more than move the Nationals one or two places out of the cellar. It was great to be down in NC country with you so recently, and we look forward to seeing you again at Passover-Easter. Did I tell you we're working on matzoh meal Peeps?

Enjoy your matzoh meal Peeps this weekend.

Glad to hear that you watched the final with the boys. We did not let our children stay up and watch.

I had to laugh at the sleep nazi comment....that has been my nickname in my family for the past 4 years! It feels good to break the rules every once in a while, right? Sounds like you all had a great family night!
