Marcus High School Basketball Stake Champions - Austin

Savanna's High School Basketball team won the State Championship Title in Austin, TX March 11th and 12th, 2011.  We went to cheer them on and witness this great event in her high school career.  It was 2 great games and we had a great time in Austin afterward.  This kicked off our spring break.
 The Girls decorated the car with paint in support of our team.  We had team spirit.



 The game was played at the Texas Longhorn stadium at University of Texas in Austin.  Marcus fans filled the stadium.  Savanna and her friend Kayla were showing their team spirit with M's on their cheeks.
 Some pictures of the game on Friday afternoon.  We won and then bought tickets for the championship game on Sat night.
 Victoria and her friend Adrian sporting their team spirit.




 After the game... We won.
 We visited the Texas State Capitol Building in downtown Austin.  What a beautiful building.





 Sat morning we went canoeing in the lake in dowtown Austin.




 Waiting for dusk when the bats fly out from under the bridge.  It was a neat sight to see thousand of little bats fly out after sleeping all day to hunt at night.
 We toured the inside of the State Capitol building.  Some of the rooms were closed due to a protest that had happened earlier that morning.


 Pictures from the Championship game.  It was an amazing game.  One that we are so happy we were able to experience.  We believed that we would win and we did.

 Savanna got to sneak down to the floor and see the celebration and made it on TV as they were interviewing one of our star players.


 Enjoying the pool and amenities at our hotel.  We just happened to stay at the Embassy Suites that our basketball team stayed in.  We didn't know this when we booked it.  We were able to witness the celebration in the hotel parking lot.

  1. Sounds fun except for the Bats! No Thanks. When I first started reading this, I thought that Savanna was playing basketball and went to state, but I figured out by looking at the pictures that it was the boys team. Really Cool!
