It’s the most wonderful time of the year – bracket time! Damon insists that this is his year to finally put his name on the trophy and display it in his room. But now that Avery has figured out the seedings and rankings, she’s finally in the competition to win too. And don’t forget about Grandma, Grandpa, and Karen. They’re always good sports to join in our crazy family tradition.

Of course we’re all rooting for IU to make a good showing this year. And as much as we love Big Ten basketball, those teams always seem to disappoint us in the tournament. So we’re not letting ourselves get too excited about the prospects of a Big Ten team finally going back to the championship game.

Here are our brackets!

As always, you can keep up with the fun right here on the blog as we keep you updated on our family pool over the next several weeks. Good luck to everyone and their brackets!
