Brandon had been talking about this dodgeball tournament that Deron Williams and Kyle Korver put on each year and how he really wanted to be a part of it. I said sure whatever you want, not thinking that it would actually ever happen. As it got closer I realized we were really going to be in a dodge ball Tournament. I couple of people bailed out last minute but luckily Blake and Michelle Simkins stepped in. It was a lot of fun, but extremely competitive. I think a lot of these teams actually practiced. Needless to say we got killed. We started getting better as the day went on, but it was too late by then. I think we are going to do it again next year if they have it.

We had some fun games and memories. Brandon and I decided to make team shirts the night before. Our team name was 'The Best Factor". One of the good memories is that Lindsey was the last team member out on the court and balls were flying. Well one came straight at her and instead of her ducking or diving she catches it get the other guy out and lets one of our players in. Her reaction was priceless even the crowd on the sideline thought it was an amazing catch and cheered her on. Go Lindsey!
Well you know how to practice for next year... "If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball!" Sorry, I couldn't resist!
