It's Madness!

If you know me at all you know I am obsessed with UK Basketball. So when I discovered that Matt, mom, dad, Kathy, and anyone else I knew was going to be out of town the night of Big Blue Madness, I was left with 2 options - 1) Stay home with Alex and watch on TV or 2) Take a 1 year old to a basketball scrimmage that doesn't start until 7 p.m. (keeping in mind he typically goes to bed at 7:30).

I am sure you know which option I went with. And to make things even more fun on myself, I took Reagan along as well.

It ended up being a great time. Alex got sleepy one time, didn't fuss, but just snuggled with mommy. We did leave before it was over and I am pretty sure he was asleep in the car before we got out of the parking garage. They both loved every minute of it and Alex was only concerned when the fireworks were the ones really close to us.

I will say, I was even more excited when they did a special moment with the banners. The one thing I hated to miss the most this year was when they raised the banner for the championship at Rupp. So when they brought out a player from every championship team, including Wah Wah Jones, and raised all 8 of the banners again, I was beyond thrilled. And it helped that we were sitting in the end zone where the banners were so we had an up close view of it.

Here are some pictures from the kids' 1st Big Blue Madness:

Only would have been better if Daddy was with us too!

Sleepy boy. Funny thing is, this was during the loudest part of the night - the boy's intros.
