A little MG delay

The Mark Grantham tournament was a total blast and with even more action going on the second day. I think I spent more time wishing I was playing LOL. Thanks to everyone that posed and helped out!

I'll be getting more photos on the blog soon. I seem to have caught a cold at the tournament so there's a minor delay.... >.< but I promise I will get more photos up soon. =)

As I mentioned on facebook, I ended up with over 2000+ photos this time.. o.O So look forward to the photos =) especially the A's Finals games ^,^
