One of the last perks from Kyle's work were free tickets to a hockey game that he got last week at work. The Everett Silver Tips played the Spokane Chiefs. Kate was excited to go watch people ice skate. That's all she talked about. We tried explaining the game of hockey to her before so she wouldn't be scared when players got smashed up against the sides or from the loud cow bells that the crazed fans used. She was fine and the game had her attention for about 5 minutes and after that she was interested in the girl's dippin' dots behind us, moving from seat to seat and eating her candy. Preston kicked a guy in front of us a couple times so I'm sure they were glad we were behind them.
They are in a trance watching the mascot!
I took this picture so after 5 attempts we got this one and Preston is only partially cut off- not bad.
We stopped at a store before the game so she could pick out some candy and she chose these. She was in heaven. She wanted to eat the whole bag- I didn't let her. :)
The hockey game (and Kate's fingers in the lower right corner- once again her fingers found a way into the picture!). We have no idea who won because we left after only an hour. Preston was getting squirly and super whiny so he needed his bed. Good thing the tickets were free!
Kate wanted to wear her gloves. It was chilly in there so we were all bundled up.

Very cute family self portrait. I love Kate's eyes. Typical the dippin dots looked more fun than the game. Glad it was fun for an hour at least.
We are going to a hockey game tonight too, but without kids. My boss likes to take the staff and families once in awhile. I don't really care for hockey, but it is a night out with my hubby so I am glad for that. And a trip to costco before to boot. Can't be beat!
