Go Avs Go

Oh my goodness. One of my dreams came true last Thursday. I went to a Colorado Avalanche game!! The Avs didn't make the playoffs this year but they were still so great to watch and they are going to come back next year and kick some major butt. Connor, Max, and I left at 4am on Thursday morning and met my dad in Fort Collins before driving down to Denver. We walked around 16th street mall before going over to the Pepsi Center. Our seats were right behind the penalty box and it was so great.  I literally cried when the players came out on the ice, I was so excited. I'm way too emotional for my own good, I know.  The Avs ended up winning 1-0 in a shootout and it was great.  The whole game I just couldn't believe that I was there and that the players were right in front of me.  It was such a fabulous night with family that I am never ever going to forget. We then spent Friday exploring Denver, eating some great food and going bowling.  It was fun to just have family time.  The weekend before finals may have been a crazy time to take a roadtrip, but it was perfect.  I'm still on a high. Hopefully it will carry me all the way through finals.

The view when I first sat down.

Warm up!

Face Off!

Avs win!!
