Road trip to Pullman for the Cougars!

My Wildcats of Central Washington were getting beat on the gridiron, so as that game ended I needed to see another game for another chance at a win. I hopped in the car and road tripped through the Palouse (God's Country) on my way to Pullman to watch the Washington State Cougars take on the Cal Bears.
You can't drive through the Palouse without respecting the "Go Cougs" sign in the middle of nowhere. As you drive through the Palouse, there is so much natural beauty and this is one of the few great man-made sights along the trip.
Great stadium. Yes, it's the smallest in the Pac12 with a capacity of 36,000 or so, but it's a great old school stadium with new upgrades and a rabid student fan base immediately behind the Cougar bench. Great energy at the stadium.
The Cougs are a great offensive team. They put up 59 points on Cal. Unfortunately the Cougs aren't the greatest defensively and Cal put 60 on 'em.

This is Jon. We celebrated Adelyn's 4th birthday party over the course of a few days. Parents party, grandparents party and kids party. She was very spoiled. Can't believe this girl is four!

My two girls lookin' cute. I think she looks adorable in these two pics!

When Mommy's sick and Daddy's in charge...

Image
...this happens... Addy is potty training (quite successfully and very quickly I might add) so she's pretty much pantsless 24/7. She doesn't usually wear Brittany's boots, though. That's Addy again, wearing Delaney's wicked witch hat. Don't know where she got it. Delaney and her sunflower she's been growing since the last few days of school. It finally bloomed at the beginning of this week...and Delaney's wearing Mommy's boots now.

Quarterly update from KTown

Image
Spring sports with Delaney playing volleyball for the second straight year. This year was noticeably different as her league included fifth through eighth graders. Adelyn with her second year of softball. Again, a noticeably different level of competition. Delaney will eat anything, just like me. Food is fun, especially when you try new things. We're at the Crab Pot along the Seattle waterfront and we got a seafeast of salmon, crab, clams, mussels, shrimp, sausage and corn. It was deee-lish. Dee Dee and her shrimp...right before she ripped its head off to grub down. Kittitas day at the Mariners game. 80 of our closest friends from KTown in attendance. Took Adelyn and Brittany to Saltwater State Park. Adelyn loved the shells, crabs and the clams underneath the surface squirting water. On our way home, we got stopped on the pass for the roadwork blasting. Took the opportunity to snap a few pics of this beauty. Adelyn with my hat, a rain coat, pajamas, ten
