These are the Plumlee Brothers, Miles, Mason, and Marshall. I told them that Mrs. Steiner wanted me to take the picture.
Let me explain a little bit about how this all happened. My mom was the elementary school librarian for the Plumlee brothers that play basketball for Duke. Recently, my mom emailed Mason a picture of Carter in his #5 Duke Jersey (Mason's number) that he got for Christmas. Since Duke was playing at Clemson, my mom asked about tickets and we were lucky enough get tickets to the game... After a great day of basketball, Carter was waiting for autographs after the game.
Carter got to meet Mason Plumbee. He signed Carter's Duke backboard and his jersey.
Marshall and Miles came out too. They were all so nice to us and we were so thankful for the chance to go to the game. It was amazing.
Carter with Mason Plumlee. He was so kind to Carter (who was actually a little nervous to meet them)
Now back to the game. Here are a ton of pictures. If you couldn't notice. We are sitting on row B, right behind the bench. They were the best seats possible. Miles #21, Mason #5 and Marshall to the far right.

You can see Miles in the front, Marshall with the gold headphones and Mason in the back with the blond hair.
Before the game, we looked around the Clemson fans. Patrick and Carter are actually Clemson fans, except when Duke is playing, so we enjoyed looking around.

There was an open area across from the football stadium and Carter just loved to run...
I just love this face....In front of the football stadium...
We had a great time and are so thankful for my mom and the Plumlees for making this happen... Carter was overwhelmed at times, but keeps taking about it all the time. Abby stayed with Nana and Gramps and had a good time getting her nails painted and being spoiled.

What a great experience for you all! How fun! It's so funny...when you mentioned "Mrs. Steiner," I immediately thought you were referring to my mom! Ha! Hope you had a wonderful birthday today too! Love you!
