picture time


Hi people, here are some pictures from our whirl wind tour of the new Target field in MPLS, a nice new ballpark. Too bad the REd Sox lost that day 5-2. But if it is your opening day the home team should win.

Josh and I left Sunday afternoon after the Iowa Softball game, and we crashed at my friend Kate's house for the night, we were even greeted with Twins peanuts. kate has a swanky apartment!

We woke up did some exploring and then made it to the game. There were approximately 20 red sox fans around. The twins did a good job of keeping the tickets for themselves.

We had great seats in the right field. The ball park is super nice. It was also a super nice day to go to a game. We were so close to catching the first home run ball in the park, it was exciting! We were also seated under the flag that they raised for the national anthem.

After the game we booked it to kate's apt, then piled the crap in the car and headed home, it was a quick trip.

the story

here is a link to a story about the previous post

We're famous!

Well sort of. Josh and I went to the Minnesota Twins home opener in their new baseball park, Target Field to see the Red Sox. (More details & pictures coming soon)

The big news is the first homerun was hit about 4 rows behind us. So close. However a deservign kid caught the ball.

Enjoy the following video. Josh, Kate and I are in the video.

At about the 50 second mark they pan out, and Josh is in the bottom right corner clapping, he has the red shirt on with the hat, i am to the left in a red shirt and kate is next to me in a blue top with hat. IT was awesome.

Photo Albums

It appears that the blogger doesn't like more than one album on the page. SO click on the blog entry title on the left and you can access the photos.

technical difficulties?

ok so not sure what the problem is with the picture albums, hopefully it is not permanant

Up to date

SO does that bring things up to date? I think so....

Josh is now busy with baseball and softball. He umpires the baseball and he is one of the administrators for Iowa softball games. then he goes right into sports camps. There is no down time for us.

However we are going to MPLS next Monday to see the REd Sox play the twins on opening day for Minnesota and their fancy new ball park.

Easter was kind of lame for us this year. Josh had to work softball, I stayed home, Amber stayed and went to Josh's family, but Mom and dad had a party in Guttenberg.

Ted, Brenda and the neighbors came over and had a huge easter dinner with them. they also made a day trip to the potosi brewery, where dad claims the "beer sucked." I guess he tried 6 kinds.

I did manage to make some eggs.
