ROADTRIP!!! 
So we packed up our stuff and pursued our spontaneous plan to Simi to see Erica and Kevin. It's rare that we get to live by the seat of our pants anymore, so this was like feeling "young" again. And as always, it was a blast! We are so glad we got to hang out with Erica & Kevin for the weekend.
Before....
After...
Good job, guys!
Erica had fun with Isaac and so did Dodger!
He doesn't look so sure in this picture, but Isaac really got a kick out of Dodger. He would laugh and squeal with delight as Dodger pranced around him.
Saturday night we went to the Angels vs. Mariner game and started out high in the upper deck, as usual...
Bird's eye view; lofty and detached, but taking it all in.
...but toward the eighth inning a lot of Angels fans were clearing out because of the score. So being the rebels that they are, the Kevins snuck down to the lower seats.
And of course we were right behind them!
Now, I can appreciate a ball game from this perspective! But it gets better! Toward the very end we got even closer! We watched the nailbiter ending from just behind the dugout. To top it off the Mariners won by one point in the last inning! Kevin was thrilled, to put it mildly.
Thanks for the fun weekend, Erica & Kevin! We loved visiting you, as always!
Kevin had both Saturday and Sunday off last weekend, which is very rare. So on a whim he called Kevin Rossi in Simi to see what he and Erica were up to. Firefighter Kevin happened to have the weekend off too. Both Kevin's had their eye on the baseball game in LA on Saturday night: our Mariners vs. their Angels. It seemed like kismet!

On Saturday the guys put in the new flooring for Erica & Kevin's living room. While they did that, Erica and I took Isaac out and had our own fun at the mall.

Sunday was the reluctant ending to our fun in Simi, but before skipping town we caught lunch with one of Erica's sisters Margaret and her daughter Evie after church. It was a treat because we don't get to hang out with her very much when we come to town. Margaret and I go way back too; we actually graduated from high school together.
Thanks for the fun weekend, Erica & Kevin! We loved visiting you, as always!

Good game choice! We love the Angels!!
Uh, correction. Kevin would like me to specify that in case it wasn't clear, we were there to see the MARINERS. And they won! By one RUN. I was also informed that I'm ignorant in baseball (any surprise there? And do I care?). Apparently using the term "points" was an error. Anyway... on to other important things...!
LOL

what fun! and what a great game to see!! it's really fun to try and be spontaneous sometimes still. we don't do very well at that:)
LOVED seeing the pictures of your trip!!!
tell Kevin that Alan has each Mariner game on the radio now, so we all listen to them. And slowly we are becoming more and more, Washington people...even sports! (except for the big 'will never ever switch from being fans' sport - you know what I mean BSU)
