Twins Game X 2 = Fun Times!

Our annual trip to the Twins vs the Mariners game was a little different this year. The biggest difference was we were able to take Easton and Owen to their first Twins game. We also went with Julianne and her whole family, along with Jim and Karen. I'm not sure if we knew this going in but it was Ichiro bobble head night which made the longest lines I have ever seen!

How good does Owen look in his Twins jersey? He's a stud!

Here are all three kids waiting in line with Jeannette, Julianne, and Kristi! Sporting the Twins gear of course!

I couldn't pass this picture up. You have to love Joe Mauer!

The boys were pretty rambunctious and couldn't sit still in one place for a long period of time but they seemed to enjoy it! As for Addy, she fell asleep a half-an-hour before the first pitch and slept till the 3rd inning but then she was ready to go after that.

We also did our annual Twins / Mariners game with the Dyks! We started the day by hitting the Pyramid brewery before hitting the game.

Kristi and Lori toasting to a day without kids!

I have to say this was the fastest game I have ever been at. We didn't get there till the 4th inning because we were to busy drinking but the total game time was only 2 hrs and 5 min! We were there a little over an hour!

1st Day

Today was an exciting day for us as Addy went to her first day of preschool. I think Kristi and I were more nervous for her than she was. Here she is getting out of the van and getting ready to head in!

She is only attending half days for right now but we hope to be able to get her in full days soon. Here she is heading up the stairs to her classroom.

Addy was a little hesitant and a little sad when it was time for Kristi to leave, something that we did expect would happen. Although I do have to say there was a little boy that was so nervous he threw up when his parents left. Kristi felt so bad for him! Here she is hanging up her stuff!

Here she is with her teacher Miss Michelle. Kristi, Addy, and I got a chance to meet her at the open house on Tuesday, and she made a very impressive first impression. We think she will be perfect for Addy, and she really seemed to like her so that was a big bonus.

This is after her first day heading home!


I absolutely love these pictures. She looks so grown up to me. It's hard to believe how fast she is growing. I also LOVE her Hello Kitty bag. The school asked us to buy a full sized school bag because they will be sending projects home in folders, and they would like a set of fresh clothes in a plastic bag just in case of an accident.

LOVE IT!!

To celebrate her first day we took her to Red Robin and let her order whatever she wanted!

Mac-N-Cheese with a Chocolate shake was her meal of choice!

GREAT JOB ON YOUR FIRST DAY ADDY! WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU!
