What We've Been Up To

It's been one week since I have been on a computer. I hardly remember what it is I used to do on the computer for several hours at a time. So what have we been up to? Not much actually.

Last Sunday Jason and I went to the final Wild game of the season against the Dallas Stars. Jason really wanted to attend that particular game because the Stars were originally the Minnesota North Stars before the club moved to Texas.


The Wild won by two and it was an exciting game to attend! Nordy ran around the whole night with his end of the season sign:


We had a really good night and even came close to winning the night's raffle! We were 200 numbers off. I should have let Jason grab a couple more tickets when he asked! Oh well. Half the proceeds benefited Minnesota Hockey and the other half went to the raffle winner. Maybe next year!

Not too much else has been happening with us. Just Amelia and her usual shenanigans. Here are some pictures:

We're never bored - that is for sure!

Wild Game

Last Thursday evening Jason and I had a night out! We received free tickets to a Minnesota Wild game! I had never been to a professional hockey game or an event at our Xcel Center so it was a night of firsts for me!

We got there early and had dinner at a nearby Italian place that is a family favorite of us all. I hadn't had a sense of smell or taste all week (I thought it was a cold but in reality it turns out to be my allergies) and Thursday was the first time I tasted all week!

We had great seats and had a good night. Our team even won!


Funny story about the evening: Event parking is insane and I decided that we were not going to spend $15 to park our car. We headed up onto Cathedral Hill to park (for free) because 6-ish blocks is not big deal to walk. We got parked, checked signs and curbs and decided we were in fact legally parked. Guess again! We got back to a parking ticket that was over twice the amount of the event parking across the street from the venue! What lesson did we learn? Just pay for event parking!

We are headed to the season's final game against Dallas next Sunday evening and you better believe I will have and extra twenty in my purse for parking!
