Go Dukes!

We have just returned home from a very long and fun family day! We took a trip to Harrisonburg for the day to bring the boys (and Lucy!) to their first JMU sporting event - a men's basketball game(JMU VS. VCU). It was a blast! The boys loved getting new JMU t-shirts, eating a packed lunch in the van, walking up to the game, seeing the Duke Dog, watching a GREAT game that we almost won (a few too many bad calls from the refs in our opinion!), seeing a player from the Eagles who used to be a JMU football player, getting to see Miss Sarah on our way home (mommy's great friend from JMU) and eating Mellow Mushroom Pizza in Charlottesville on our way home. It was fun to just be together and enjoy some fun parts of God's world and enjoy something with Owen that he loves so much (sports and numbers!). Lucy did great - sleeping in the car and Baby Bjorn the majority of the day, certainly playing the part of a third child, being toted around to a basketball game at 2 months old! We feel like we have now properly taught our boys about our alma mater and instilled a love for JMU in Owen that may just rival his love for Virginia Tech.
