As most of you know hockey was my passion before becoming a mommy.
So when brother asked to go see the Hurricances at the RBC Center...I made plans to do it!
The best part was he was just as happy to come to a practice as a game!
Here he's realizing I was right and he would want his jacket!
Picking any seat was fun!
Never too early to appreciate this awesome sport!
He watched so carefully...
with a smile and look of total happiness!!!
Warmed my heart so much!!!
Lil sis was interested in what he was watching but mostly enjoyed the other things the arena had to offer.
Like folding chairs and
and steps with bars! She even broke out a few gymnastics moves!!
#20 Troy Bodie tossed a puck over and he got it!
I am so glad I got to share this experience with him!!!
**Please excuse the hair...we used gel last night and he thought this morning's "mohawk" was pretty cool!!! I am just glad he has that kind of self confidence...and that he can wear a hat to his baseball game tonight!!!
The children were very curious. 
Big sis enjoyed herself.... 
and look at his face. He was super excited for this night to come!
Here he is warming up for his first time at bat. 
Getting ready... 
sizing it up.... 
WHAM!!! 
First base, 
second base, 
third base, 
coming 
home for his first run!!! 
Oh yea...first of many!!! 
He watched the game, cheered for his team and kept track of ball/strikes/outs all evening!

( His new release and posssibly the first hardback book I ever paid full price for!)
Big sis and Brother waiting patiently... 
while lil sis got a little silly! 
Marc Brown wrote one of our favorite book and TV series Arthur. He was in Raleigh today for a book signing. He spoke about how the series began as a bedtime story for his son and grew from there! It did a great job and even showed us how to draw Arthur! 
I really enjoyed hearing him speak and bought the book right then.
I am not ususally big on autographs but this personalized book is very special.
Brother's class had a wonderful field trip to the Franklin County Airport today.
My handsome boy.... 
It was quite windy but we enjoyed learning about airplane and helicopters! 
And he really enjoyed getting in the small airplane! 
After a nice picnic with this friends we went to a great park to wait for time to pick up big sis. 
She loved the slide and swings... 
while he enjoyed the mud!!!
