Adventures in Idaho and Oregon

Catching Up

I find myself having to play catch up again. I can't believe we are already over halfway through 2011! On March 8 we celebrated our 8 year anniversary in where else?? Maine! In April I celebrated a birthday (29 again)! I'll give you one guess where we went...yep- Maine! What can I say? We love Maine!

We have really gotten into hockey this past season and started going to a lot of Manchester Monarchs games. They are the AHL affiliate of the LA Kings. We loved it so much we became season ticket holders for this upcoming season and are anxiously waiting for October 7th to get here because that is their home opener. Here's Colin at a Monarchs game.


On Easter we had some friends over and had a peanut butter cup hunt instead of an Easter egg hunt. Our friend Erik (aka Bobo), LOVES peanut butter cups, so one of our other friends set up a Bobo trap with some Bobo bait...


Making sure he got them all...I don't think he shared with anyone either!


We celebrated a nice spring day with a NH Fishercats game


In June we had to say goodbye to some friends..Luke moved to Durham, NC for a new job. He's working with some Duke professors so I expect him to score me some tickets to a Duke game at Cameron. I would recommend not wearing this shirt at your new job Luke! :) In fact, it's probably best just to burn it so you aren't tempted!


Tyler and Mitra moved back to Arizona to go to UofA and become doctors because they weren't smarter than us already! :) O.k...so they may not look very smart in these hats but really, they are!

We miss our friends and wish them the best in their new adventures!
