Last night we went with the fam to an M's game, and they actually won! Plus, we saw the world's coolest play where the runner stole 2nd AND 3rd because he turned left instead of right on his single and the A's didn't notice (it's hard to explain, but it was awesome!).
We got a sitter for Claire- thankfully. We love her, but we don't think she would have enjoyed the game. We felt like we were missing our left arm with only one kid in tow, but it was a good decision.
Audra had a fantastic time, and was sobbing when the game was over because we had to leave. All the cousins basically played musical chairs the whole time- all begging and asking to move chairs to keep switching which cousin they were sitting next to the whole time. It melted my heart to see Audra having so much fun with her cousins!!! I SOOOOOOO wish we lived closer to them so they could spend more time together. Sigh.
We got to take the lightrail downtown- it is REALLY nice! And, I'm proud to say that my amazingly talented friend Danielle helped design the stations, and they are the coolest stations I have ever seen!!!
At the game- we had a blast! And, I told Audra if she took a nap before the game she could have some ice-cream. That's all she could talk about, and since it was pink ice-cream, she loved it.
Audra got to hold baby Makenna, which made her night. She really loved sitting next to the babies.
Even though the 9th inning isn't shown, this was the final score. Another great night!

I wish I could take credit for some of the lightrail work, but alas, I cannot. The stations I helped with are in phase two, which is now under construction, and one of the two stations (the one I did some modeling on) actually got canned and is about to be a highrise apartment building instead. THe other one I had a VERY small part in, like teensy-weensy (the Capital Hill one). But, I'm glad you liked them. Transit work is my very favorite kind of architecture and I agree, a couple of the stations are pretty cool. The stuff I had a huge part in were the monorail stations for the monorail line that shall never be built...sigh...moment of silence...one more sigh...
Glad the M's finally won. Sheesh.
I'm glad you are having such a fun vacation!
