Fundraising Fun

Yesterday I played three games of softball. I can't remember the last time I played a game of softball, let alone three games.

It was for a good cause, a fundraiser for the Adopt A Library Program, and I had a great time.

The games were in Stellarton and we couldn't have asked for better weather.

Sea Dogs

That's the name of the Saint John hockey team. I was confident it was in reference to seals...but their mascot is an actual dog, so that leads to a bit of confusion.

Last weekend Greg and I took in a Sea Dogs playoff game. We bought tickets pretty last minute an we managed to get amazing seats - front row next to the Sea Dogs bench.

It turns out that face-offs = lots of butts

Front row seats for the game
also means front row for the zamboni!

There was even a call to 'upstairs' for a questionable goal.

A Sea Dogs blimp?

My snack - in lieu of beer I opted for the kids pack option
I also couldn't decided between salty and sweet and went with
both at the same time (it was a good decision)

The Sea Dogs are still in the playoffs so perhaps we'll be able to check out another game before the season is over.

Mill Rats!

Last weekend Greg and I went to our very first Mill Rats game. I must have forgotten to post it with all of the school work procrastinating I've been doing.

So here we go:

The Mill Rats played the Halifax Rainmen so we were torn on who to cheer for. It was a really awesome game with a close score throughout. The Mill Rats won in the end after some awesome dunks by the Rainmen. The tickets were relatively cheap as well, apparently season tickets are a reasonable price so it might be on the o'l wish list for next season.

In addition to an impressive dance routine from the Mill Rats Dance Team (no sarcasm here, for reals!) there was a bunch of Zumba-ers busting some moves for the half time show.
