First Timers

We had two firsts this week. First, we went to a hockey game. It was the first hockey game for both me and Brandon. It was really fun. I can totally see why Canada is so into hockey. it was really fun to watch and they made the players look like heroes as they skated their way onto the ice. Brandon kept hoping for a fight, we had a few close calls but the refs were really on the players. Brandon was disappointed about that. I kept saying that I thought the players were mean. they would just ram someone into a wall for no reason. I mean I understand it if he has the puck and its imperative that you smash him against a plexi glass wall, but if theres no specific reason its just plain old mean. It was the Everett Silvertips vs. the Chilliwack Bruins. The Silvertips won by one point in a sudden death overtime.

Here is a little piece of the action. We were in the seventh row. We had very good seats especially when the silvertips were shooting into this goal. Kristi kept embarrassing us because she was cheering for Chilliwack(thats in British Columbia)

Here we are at the game. 

And our other first was a purchase. We bought us a brand new TV. Brandon really wanted one and just couldn't wait for us to get to Rexburg. We were going to wait until Black Friday, but we didn't want to get trampled and have to wake up at 2am just for a few bucks off. So we decided to get this little beauty. Brandon went and got it yesterday and hooked it up right away. I would have been perfectly ok just leaving it in the box, but not Brandon. It was probably pretty funny to the cashier because we bought it with like 12 gift cards that we had for target from the wedding. Its the one thing Brandon wanted and since I picked out everything else we've boughten with them, I guess its only fair. So here Brandon is with his new baby.

Hes very happy now. He even connected our DVD player to it today cause he wanted to see how movies would look on it. haha
