Okay, Okay....

So I might have exaggerated a teeny bit on Mckenna's training regimen. It isn't quite so rigorous as I first described it! We are holding off on the letter to the college recruiters for a bit, we still have some skills she needs to master, like her behind the back and between the legs dribbling and a one handed dunk. I don't think it is that far off though. We have however, instituted a family basketball night. I am proud to report that although I did get dunked on and rejected a few times I didn't get hurt and I only threw a few elbows at Jonny.

I had also mentioned that Mia has only one redeeming quality. That too, was a bit of an exaggeration as well. It seems that we are totally smitten by almost everything she does. Although the post-eating pooping after she falls asleep at 2 a.m., 3 a.m., and 4 a.m. is getting a bit obnoxious.

It does seem, through a conversation with Luke's new friend's dad, that Luke has corrupted him and given his family the impression that we (Jonny and I) are star wars fanatics. We do like the movies, although we only own 2 of the 6. I know a little more about all the dudes than Jonny due to my study of Luke's Jedi sticker book-- with Luke of course. Luke's friend Colton had forced his parents into purchasing star wars dudes just like Luke had. I do feel a bit bad about that influence and hope that his parents are in for all the good stuff Luke may teach him. I wonder what the preschool boys told their parents after Monday's session at the Gibson house? I am wondering now if the light saber match that we (yes, myself included) all got into was really the best idea.Hmm... It was controlled of course, I'm just hoping that the boys didn't decide to openly whack their siblings...I guess we are in the clear as I haven't gotten any phone calls as of yet!

Also, Jonny has gotten an invitation to be a "guest coach" at Saturday's Aggie womens basketball game. He gets to sit behind the bench, attend some pregame meetings, mingle with the players and just tour the facilities. (I think) Now to me accepting that invitation was pretty much a no-brainer, regardless of it being a womens basketball game. Not many people get that kind of opportunity. He took pretty much all week to decided to go. I am guessing his resistance to attending women's sports is the reason why he has 2 daughters and only one son!
