Husky Spring Football

There are a few things that our family tries to do every year. One of those things is the Husky Football Experience every year in April. The boys always go to the Husky Football drills they have set up in Husky Stadium and then usually we hit campus and walk around a bit.

This year was no different, except BJ brought his friend LG (Logan). He's been bothering me for about the last 3 years to bring a friend and finally this year I got my act together & invited one of his friends. I think he was excited not to have to hang with his little brother the whole day.

Anyway, here's some pics from the day!

April Sh .... um ... Snow Showers

I'm a believer in the whole Global warming thing ... but on days like yesterday & today it makes it hard to believe in our little corner of the world. We received nearly 6" of snow ... in APRIL. What the heck is that?

Brennen was so excited for the snow ... he couldn't even wait to put his jacket on, he wanted outside right away.

Today we set a record for the coldest day on record for April 19. I'm more than ready for some warm weather & would welcome a few days of that round, yellow glowing orb in the sky!



Check out how much snow is on that rim, that was in only an hour or two


BJ was having a blast, a little too much fun with a 2 year old moving target for snow balls!

Husky Baseball @ Safeco Field

Brennen has been talking about going to see "Husky Baseball Game" for about the last three weeks. So we took him out to the game tonight that was at Safeco Field. The Huskies were playing Arizona (the #18 team in the country) and ended up winning the game 1 - 0.

We didn't think Brennen would last past the third inning. He's such a little wiggle worm and nothing holds his attention for long. So walking into the game it was about 45 degrees, so we thought, no big deal 3 innings & we're out. Much to our suprise, Brennen loved it! He stayed into it for the whole time and really got into cheering (and booing) throughout the game.

Bryan, B & I were freezing so after a pitching duel, we decided we'd head out after the 7th inning. It turned out to be perfect timing 'cause the Huskies scored the only run of the game in the bottom of the 7th! We quickly convinced Brennen the Huskies had won and we booked out of there to the warmth of my car.

I guess we'll be heading to more Husky baseball games this year! Who knows, maybe we've got a little baseball player in our midst!

B, not the biggest baseball fan, went along for the ride,
and 'cause he didn't have much of a choice.

Dodgeball ... Not Just for Kids

This weekend Bryan and I had a chance to play in an adult dodgeball tourney out in Snohomish. It was alot of fun and although we were both pretty sore Sunday & Monday it was well worth it. One of the guys from UPS put a team together and luckily Bryan and I were able to play, and help win the championship. It's always better when you get to beat a bunch of high schoolers who think you're old!
