Go Spurs Go!


Spurs 91 Lakers 93

In the almost 4 years that we have lived here the San Antonio Spurs have won the National Championship twice! They are working on a 3rd title and we decided to get in on the action.

Ben was fortunate enough to get tickets in the Harland Clarke box for game 5 so we enjoyed the night watching good basketball with great company. The suite was catered with yummy food and they specially ordered Ben and I a few non-alcoholic beverages! We shared a piece of Snickers Pie when the dessert cart came by and Ben enjoyed watching the game live as well as all of the replays on the TV in our suite. We saw Mrs. Longoria Parker cheering on her husband and the national anthem was sung by Clay Walker.

One funny moment occurred as we were the last two to enter the suite just before tip-off. As soon as we arrived we saw Ben's fellow colleagues all wearing the same Spurs t-shirt. Ben immediately thinks...was I suppose to buy a special shirt to wear tonight? It was a brief moment of panic but we were quickly greeted with the matching shirts which we immediately put on over our clothes! It was funny to see the confusion instantly cover Ben's face for a brief moment!

Isabelle did not attend the game with us, but she was in full Spurs cheerleader mode all day! She stayed home with an excellent babysitter, Miss Camie, and was sound asleep when we returned home at nearly midnight!

Despite the Spurs losing a close game to the Lakers, we had a great time! Now they head back to Los Angelas for game 6 and we hope to see them back here for more games this weekend!

Wow, that sounds like quite the star treatment! I'm jealous!!! But I'm sure Camie and Belle had just as much fun staying home and playing!
