DUKE game 2009

Tonight, the Duke Blue Devils beat the North Carolina Tar Heels!
It was a crazy game!
While watching the game, I realized I never posted our pictures from the Sweet 16 & Elite 8 game that was held in Houston in 2009. This was the year the Blue Devils went on to win the National Championship Game. As you can tell from the pictures, we are HUGE DUKE FANS! Jake lives and breathes Duke. Anytime Duke is scheduled to play, he begs to wear his Duke gear. Man, does he have team spirit!
We were lucky enough to meet Coach K and all of the Duke Players...only because my kids are sneaky and hauled butt while they were coming outside to meet their family and load their bus. My wild kids bypassed security and everything. I, on the other hand, had the perfect excuse to meet the players. I had to rescue my kids! So, off I went running with my camera and secretly praying that we didn't get caught and hauled off to jail. Ha!

The boys posing with a "grandpa" we met at the game. He flew himself and his 4 grandsons to the game.

A little information about Doug Collins: a retired basketball player, a former four-time NBA All-Star and currently the head coach of the NBA's Philadelphia 76ers.



The boys with Jon Scheyer's mom, Laury Scheyer. She was really sweet and didn't hesitate when we asked for a picture.





The boys and the Plumlee parents. Their 3 boys are playing for Duke this season. They are Mason, Miles, and Marshall.
