Last night our good friends the Brown's invited us to go the Mariners vs. Giants game. We lucked out and were able to watch 45 year old, and former Mariner great, Randy Johnson go for win 299. It was really fun to see Randy pitch in Safeco again even if he is a shell of his former self. The only bummer was for some reason they sat Junior and he never faced his former teammate. How stupid is that. I would have loved to see a little geezer on geezer duel.
My buddy Jeff is a lifelong Giants fan and had purchased great seats right behind the plate. I'd never sat behind the plate a MLB game and it was fun to have a different vantage point. You get a much better feel of how much speed and movement there is on a major leaguer's pitch.
We had a great time and thank you Brown's for the invite.
We also completed our Randy/Junior retro night by going old school with our babysitter. We couldn't find anyone in the ward to watch the kids so we had Whitney Englund come over and help out. Thank you Whitney!!! It was fun to have her over again and we laughed when she told us that Trevor asked her if she's forty. She's definitely grown up and we are very proud that she'll be off to serve a mission in Hong Kong in July. Sister Englund rocks!!!
