Hockey Night in Kent

This Saturday marked the start of Thunderbird Hockey for the Taverns. While this was the second game for the team, it was our first of the season. Let's hope this game was not indicative of what the season holds for the T-birds! Sloppy passes and a weak offense was all Seattle had to offer. Unfortunately, the Thunderbirds lost....to Portland no less (their biggest rivals)! We did manage to have fun though, despite the poor efforts of the team. When we parked, it started to rain (although some may classify the light drops as POURING, right Shawn??), so we hitched a ride with the "Bicycle Guys". There are several men who offer bicycle rides from the lot to the arena. So we got to ride in the fancy bike trailer in the back. Leila loved it...well actually, so did I. And we stayed dry!


Leila and Cool Bird. We didn't realize that it was free hat night for kids under 14. Right on!

In the second period, a puck came over the glass. The man right in front of us caught it and then let Leila have it. Here she is showing off her official puck. It is all beat up and everything.

The fam.
Another intermission shot...watching the Zambonis fix the ice.

Hoping that the next game won't be so tragic....
