DINNER WITH GRANDMA AND GRANDPA

When the fun at Safeco Field was over, we headed over to Grandma's house just in time to take them out to dinner at their favorite Chinese restaurant "Eng's" in Kent. We found out from grandpa that someone gave them a phone call last week and tried to scam them out of $350,000.00. Imagine that! You always hear about these things and never think that it could happen to you. The scammer did not get away with it though. Thank goodness.

LIFE'S NECESSITIES

Of course no trip to the baseball stadium is complete without hotdogs for dad, pizza for mom and Mimi and cotton candy and the.......finger.

TALKING WITH THE PLAYERS

Jason Vargas (left) and Brandon League were only a couple of the players that the fans got a chance to converse with. Then there was Dave Sims the official Mariners broadcaster who was the mediator. Next thing we knew Mimi had the mike in her hot little hands and was asking questions herself. "What is your favorite sport other than baseball?" the girl asked. The players answered basketball and football.

INTERVIEW

Both last year and this year Mimi got a chance to do an interview with the Mariners official sportscaster Angie Mentone. She was quite jazzed about it. However unlike last year, this year we have to go onto their website to upload the interview. So as of now we have not heard it. Will post as soon as we can.

WAITING IN LINE

......to get into the stadium. Of course Mimi had to take a picture of her favorite player of all times.......Ichiro Suzuki.

MARINERS FANFEST

Today was the big day for all of us Mariners fans. And what a day it was. The day started off with some light rain and thank goodness Safeco Field has a retractable roof but there was nothing we could do about the cold. It was freezing today. Maybe that is why not many fans came out this time as opposed to last year. On the other hand we did not have to wait very long in any of the lines. Most importantly the womens bathroom was not crowded at all. Woo Hoo!!!
