Kitty Litter Invitational--Final Results!

So... to answer the question on so many of your lips! I did win the Kitty Litter Invitational and Brittni is extremely excited about it (as you can see in this pic). As you can imagine she was a great sport, even in losing. The scooper has been officially passed on to her for the next 365 days!

Kitty Litter Invitational

Everyone sing along with me... "its the most wonderful time of the year"!! Each year Brittni and I put together a NCAA Tournament Bracket. As you can imagine it gets rather competitve around the house (Britt would like it to be known she has won 3 yrs in a row) during the madness of March. The tension gets amped up because the loser of the Bracket Challenge has kitty litter duty for the next year!

1st round results:

1. Brittni--115
2. Chip--110

NCAA Tourney Challenge

Drum roll please....the winner of the Discover Church NCAA Bracket Challenge is none other than Brittni Stallings!  With a comeback that will be talked about for decades to come, she stuck with the Tarheels and they got her a gold medal around her neck (actually me doing the cat's litter for 365 days)!  Here are the final results...

1. (191 pts) Brittni Stallings
2. (174 pts) Chip Stallings

The current leader, he does so much with only one eye.  We are very proud of him.

NCAA Tourney Challenge

So as a church plant team we decided to get in the spirit of the season and fill out Big Dance Tourney Brackets.  I guess church planters are a little competitive!?! We have given 1pt for correctly selecting the winner of each game in the first round, 5 for the second, 10 sweet sixteen, 15 elite eight, 20 final four, and 25 for selecting the winner (UNC of course!), in case of a tie-breaker we have chosen the final score of the championship game. And the results are...after the first round of games:

1. (22 pts) Benj Litter, Bliss Spillar, Stephanie Baker
2. (21 pts) Brittni Stallings, Brooke Haugan, Samantha Linton
3. (20 pts) Mike Robinson, Seth Huber
4. (19 pts) Chip Stallings is practicing "servant" leadership ;)
5. (18 pts) TJ Jones

P.S. Brittni and I have a side bet for cleaning the litter box for the next year!
