Yesterday was a “trophy” day. It started out with one of the best fly fishing days that I’ve ever had. Not to brag… but… I caught 20 trout in 3 hours. And one, whom we’ll call “Big Bertha,” was 20 inches long! (Don’t give me that… I have witnesses.)
Follow that up with one great championship game last night by Sterling’s soccer team. When the game ended the score was 1 to 1. After 10 minutes of overtime, it was still 1 to 1. Next came the shoot out where they pick 5 players to shoot 5 times on our goalie & we do the same. After that it was 4 to 4 (thankfully, Sterling made his shot). Next came a sudden death shoot out. Our first player stepped up and shot & made it. Their first player stepped up & missed his. So, WE WON 5 to 4 – CHAMPS! I’m so proud of those guys. They had a great season.
I guess my great “Week in Sports” has turned into a great “Day in Sports.” Kate got sick yesterday & we decided that it was best for me to stay home with her this weekend & send Lindsay, Sterling & Alex (my nephew) on ahead to Atlanta for the choice NBA & NFL seats (see below). Poor Kate – she’s feeling so bad. As for me, God filled up my “sports bank” yesterday so I’m still smiling.

ummm, yes. I’m writing to inquire about the names of your so called witnesses. ;)
just kidding! I grew up fishing with my dad so I completely appreciate how awesome a few hours like that feel!
and way to go Sterling!! Wish we could have been there to see the big game and to cheer him on!
Give sweet Kate a little TLC for us. I hope she feels better.
I wish you were with your wife, taking the games in but I love that she’s there, cheering for the both of you!
