Vacation Fun!

Since I am home on vacation with the boys, I thought I would try my hand at blogging.  After a day of cleaning and home maintenance on Monday, we had a busy day on Tuesday with Jacob attending a 2-hour hockey skills session, bowling with grandma and grandpa and George and friends attending the Monarchs game.  Here are some of the highlights:

Ben readies himself for the first frame of the day.

Jacob takes up the challenge.

George prepares to put up the high score of the day (104).

Both Grandma and Grandpa were slightly inured while bowling, with a hamstring and biceps pull, nothing serious but they did use the injuries as excuses for their poor scoring on the day.  Here they are before the injuries:

The Monarchs game was exciting, with the visiting Providence Bruins (with former UNH players Colin Hemingway and Kevin Regan (although he did not play)) tying the game up in the final seconds and the Monarchs winning in a shootout.  Perhaps more exciting for the crew was arriving at Strange Brew (with about 50 beers on tap) to find it was $2 pint and half price appetizer night!  Here is a picture of the gang enjoying the game from the luxury box (thanks dad), which holds 12 but we had to ourselves.

Lastly, for some reason the crowd just loves these crazy characters who come out and dance around in-between periods.

So, it was an eventful and fun day.  We should have more fun to report on in the next few days as Jackie will be home with us and we plan to head to wagon hill in Durham for some sliding and the museum of science in Boston (with dinner at the Boston Beerworks of course).  Stay tuned.
