The Bunch Celebrate C's Birthday and Kick Off Basketball Season

 

The weeks are beginning to go by faster now, especially with basketball season being in full swing. We managed to go up to C's new house in Bonham to celebrate his birthday. His house is about 77 miles east of our house. The drive is pretty nice and it only takes about an hour to get there. We went to a chinese place called The Bamboo House. It was probably the best place I have ever had Chinese food. I liked it better than Mr. Chopsticks in Denton and I really love Mr Chopsticks. C showed off his new house to us now that they are all unpacked and we visited for a bit. T has a game out that way in a couple of weeks so he plans to come watch T play. 

Their house is super cute! It is small at only 1200 sq ft, but they designed it really well. 

It was built this year and is an open floor plan.

It is so light and bright looking. It makes it feel bigger than it is.

Both bathrooms have dual vanities.

All three bedrooms are a good size.

Since they both work from home, they converted one bedroom into a home office, which apparently doesn't work when they both have phone calls to take. 😂

B likes her new school and as a bonus her Grandma is the school nurse there.

T had his first basketball game of the season this week and unfortunately, they lost. However, they lost in overtime in a very tight game. We were playing our historically toughest competitor and everyone played really well. T definitely did not get as much playing time as he normally does, but he is a starter. I think the coach is still really freaked out by the little episode a couple of weeks ago and is just really trying to make sure that T has no chance of reaching that point again. He only played about a third of the game, but made 2 baskets. All the kids pretty evenly split the baskets. T might not be offensive player of the year this year since everyone scores about the same, at least it won't be the blow out it was last year when  T scored more than twice as many points as the next player. On the plus side, if T has a bad night it also won't mean that the team automatically loses.

T played well. Fun fact: the new white shorts are see through and it turns out T does not own white underwear! 😂 We'll fix that issue before next week's tournament.

He still has only lost a tip off once. Unfortunately, both times this game the other team recovered the ball.

Even though he'll deny it, this WAS the picture that made my husband shave off his beard! He said he thought he was smiling. I told him he needs to really exaggerate his emotions with a beard. On a side note, we went to see Voddie Baucham. Watch some of his stuff on you tube. He was great!
