mariners and french toast...

the ward went to the Mariner's game on Saturday... good times had by all. the sun was out (mostly) it wasn't too hot or too cold, we were surrounded by friends, the M's won... all in all it was a fantastic experience! i took a bunch of pictures, you'll have to check out my facebook for those :) this was my favorite one of all the pictures i took...
i'm not as much of a baseball fan as i wish i was... i guess the game is just a little too sporadic in it's excitement for me... and there's not enough contact... football is my sport of choice...
but considering that the football season doesn't start til September 4th, baseball it is... there were a bunch of people there and it was a blast! :) my least favorite part though... Mr. Soccer, Mr. DCs and their ex-roommate who i don't have a name for yet, came for a bit, and then left to go over to Qwest for Supercross... oh the JEALOUSY!!! (i've gone past the "green with envy" stage... now i'm just flipping through the colors with jealousy...) i wanted to go SOOO bad!! but i was a driver for a carpool, and my best friend and i couldn't just ditch our carpool-ies, ya know?? oh well... maybe i'll go next year... or maybe i'll fly to Vegas for it next weekend... be spontaneous like that... if only.


THEN... Sunday my best friend and i went over to Mr. Soccer and Mr. DCs abode to make breakfast for dinner... yes, in that beautiful kitchen that i'm so jealous of!! i finally got to cook in it... and it was fanTAStic... we made my dad's famous french toast, hash browns, bacon... mmmmmmm... so good!! i have to admit, i was a little nervous at first... i mean i've made this breakfast a hundred times, if not more, but having people hover over me while i'm making it, expecting something great... yikes!! i'm pretty sure i was shaking... but everyone was pretty lax about it... which made me calm myself down a bit :) it was a way fun time!! we (sylvia and i) provided food and Mr. Soccer and Mr. DCs provided entertainment: Mr. Soccer played the piano and both of them sang... they're quite talented if i do say so myself. i might have to take advantage of that and have them be a special musical number for me one of these Sundays... ;) be prepared to be amazed!
after dinner we had brownies and ice cream and played/watched them play this AWESOME and ADDICTING video game called N+... omigosh... it keeps me up at night! the background music plays in my head and i'm all jumpy cuz i don't wanna land on a mine! it's a fun game though... much more fun than other games i've played... if you die, you don't just fall over like in Halo... your body actually gets blown to smithereens... and pieces of you fly around the screen, setting off more bombs or mines or whatever they are... it's pretty cool... i started to get mad though... i'm not one to take it lightly if i lose repeatedly... i kinda wanted to huck the controller at the tv a few times...
anyway... it was way fun. definitely gunna hafta do that again! :)
thanks for having us over guys!! and thanks for letting me cook in that AWESOME kitchen of yours... LOVE it! :)
bbq ribs next time?? done. (fyi... it's kinda a long process)
