Go Steelheads!

Mike and Quaid attended their first hockey game last night. I thought for sure by the time they got home Quaid would be zonked. Oh how I was wrong!!! He loved the game, or at least spending time with Dad and the adventures the arena was full of. I don't think I've ever seen Quaid as hyper as he was last night, just bouncing, hollering and laughing.I think he went to bed around midnight. Mike: It was lots of fun. I had tickets through work, because we were one of the sponsors for "Green Night". I think it was everything hockey is supposed to be; from the renditions of both US and Canadian national anthems, to a fight 90 seconds into the first period, to a broken hockey stick. It was all quite exciting. The winning goal looked more like the goalie missed a pop fly, but hey it's like slopping the hogs. They don't care if it is pretty, just so long as they get fed. I think Quaid's favorite parts though, were our giant popcorn bag and climbing between rows, walking down rows, and up and down the few stairs by our seats. Busy, busy, busy. Though I have to admit he was pretty mellow during warmups and the first period and a half. He also enjoyed watching all the cars downtown before and afterwards.


While the boys had their outing, Mikiya came with me to mutual. We made cutesy magnet picture frames and Mikiya got to do her own. She was pretty pleased to make it look cute and it matches her room. She even picked out what the lettering says and the design paper. Sad for me, I made one for Quaid but in transporting it the metal slid and now there is glue all over the lettering.
