this weekend went by incredibly quickly. we were hardly home on saturday. we drove up to my parents’ house for lunch, came back and left about 30 minutes later for the hockey game. all i have to say about that is at least we didn’t pay for our tickets. things were great through the second period. we were winning. the teams were playing great hockey. then, in the third period, the thrashers fell apart, as they have been doing recently. it’s just like being at a braves game, where the bullpen falls apart in the ninth inning.
at least we had fun with our friends. we sat up in the third section, which isn’t so good if you’re afraid of heights as i am. however, we were able to see the entire rink, which was really nice. when you sit close, you can’t see the other end of the ice.
this picture shows how high up we were.
we lost 5-2, but at least i got a cute pink hat out of it!
joe was getting very antsy during the third period.
a woman sitting behind us was nice enough to offer to take a picture of me and joe, which is much better than us taking one ourselves!
yesterday, we had breakfast at ihop (yum!) and then did a quick clean of the apartment before our party. i’ve been keeping it quite clean lately (i cannot leave for work with my apartment a mess!), so there wasn’t much to do. we tried to watch ugly betty from thursday night, but i ended up falling asleep halfway through. we’re going to try again tonight, either before or after 24!
our party was a lot of fun. we had four friends over, one of whom we haven’t seen in quite a while. the boys talked football; emma and i talked weddings. 🙂 joe says next year we’re having segregated parties with the food inbetween rooms. haha.
how was your weekends?
Joe says
Correction: You fell asleep about 11 minutes into Ugly Betty. Please don’t lie to your readers.

Ha ha, I can relate on the falling asleep thing. If it’s after 9:30 and Bryan wants to put a movie on, he is pretty much guaranteed I’ll be asleep in about 30 mins. I’m just like that =)
Cute pics from the Thrashers game!
Chas says
Sounds like fun! I’ve never been to a hockey game. I don’t even think I realized that Atlanta had a team until now.
Felicia says
Looks like you guys had fun! And don’t worry about it. I can barely keep my eyes open past 7:00 pm anymore…what’s tv? lol
Laura says
I love the picture!

When Chad and I went to see the Thrashers we were were litterally as high up as possible. I was fine once we were sitting down, but trying to get to our seats by climbing over other fans was truly scary.
If you’ve never been to see the Nashville Predators, try to get up there … I like the arena much better than Phillips. 🙂
Hannah says
Cute picture! I can’t believe we’ve never gone up to Atlanta for a game!
Lisanne says
Cute photo of you two! 🙂 I’ve never been to a hockey game; I’d love to do that sometime!
