The Special Olympic Basketball Finals were in Grandville this weekend. Danny had the time of his life! He rode up with Coach Cara and Coach Jason at about 1:00 Friday afternoon. Fred and I met up with them at the 5:00 game. The athletes stayed with the team. He roomed with Coach Jason and one of his teammates. He had a blast and they won both of the games they played so they got a gold medal. He is so pumped! He kept repeating on the way home, "I can't believe I have a gold medal!" and "I'm so happy!" When we got home he put on his jacket and came in the house with the medal hiding. "Hey, Wade, Gretchen, Molly, everyone.......are you ready to be impressed?!" He whips open his jacket, "A gold medal!!!"Here's a video clip. Danny shoots but misses.
