March Madness 2012

Its the most wonderful time...of the year.....March Madness. Henry woke up on Monday morning ELATED to get the paper and to cut out all the brackets. This year the first games are in Portland -- yahoo! Jenny and the kids were here too -- even better! We decided to make a family affair....yes....all three kids. They actually did great! Frances even squeezed in a nap between games. We were entering the last game (at 6:00 PM after being there since 10 am)....and then....we brought the Madness to March Madness. Frances was standing a chair to talk to her cousins and her foot fell through and we couldn't get it out. Jenny finally got it out...only to tell me that Frances "was this close to amputating her foot". She was INCONSOLABLE.. It was horrific.  We worried she might have broken something as she wouldn't walk on it. Long story short -- she is ok (confirmed by X rays this morning) and back to Francie pace today.  On Saturday....there will be no standing....only cheering from our seats.
