This time of year is very exciting and tense at our house! We love our favorite NBA team... we talk about them on a first name basis and we watch every minute we can of them! Jason has loved the Mavs since he was in 4thgrade and they were in the Western Conference play-offs only to be beaten by the Lakers. That loss made Jason love the Pistons who played the Lakers in the Finals. Jason has been a dedicated fan since that time...even when the Mavs were 10-89 in the 1990's. Since Dirk has joined the team they have been much better and have proved a true competitor in the NBA. Justin and Karyn got the boys their first jerseys last Christmas and they love to wear them with Daddy and cheer for their favorite team. It has been fun to see Jason pass on his love for the Mavs to Jacob and Rylan. In fact, the first time I felt them move in the womb was during the 2006 play-offs and we were yelling for the Mavs! Jason was convinced they were saying "Go Mavs!!!" And you can see they have not stopped cheering for their favorite team! :)
Even though the Mavs play-off dreams this season are looking bleak at this point, Jacob still screams, "Go MAVSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!"
Does your family have a favorite team you follow?

Oh my! Look at those excited fans--all 3 of them! I bet it's quite loud at your house when the Mavs are playing. :)
Oh yeah, Most of our teams have struggled this year, but Marc and the boys are sitting big on the NCAA national basketball champs! Marc has been a Tar Heels fan FOREVER! The boys have jumped on that band wagon (Adam's T-ball jersey was 50 for Tyler Hansborough)! So, I'm with you...It has been so fun for Marc to see them get into his team! Good Times!
