Twins Game

Tim (a.k.a. Mr. Fun!) and Maddie enjoying the game

We had an fabulous time going to the Twins game October 2nd! It was Maddie's 1st and last Twins game in the Dome since they will be in their new stadium next year. They played Kansas City and the fans were ready for an exciting game. The Twins needed the win because they are fighting for a playoff spot. They came through and won 10 to 7!!

We were glad that my sister Michelle and Matt were able to meet us at the game.






Maddie was such a trooper at the game. She cheered and screamed like a true fan and was a good little girl! I was glad there were a lot of people to help with her. She bounced between all of us and we tried to keep her entertained. We were in the dome for about four hours and for that long of time, she did really well!

Uncle Andy flew in from Los Angeles and spent the weekend with us. It was great to see him again!

CeCe and Shell!

Sharon, Jan and Bob's cousin Sara. Sara also flew in from San Fransisco to spend the weekend with the Hogue's. She hadn't been back to MN since 1995 and was the first time that Maddie and I have met her. She was so sweet and it was great to get to know her a little bit.

There were a total of 14 of us that attended the game together and truly had a wonderful time.

It doesn't happen very often when all of the Hogue kids are together with Blake living in L.A. and Rob in Iowa. We took this picture at about 12:30 a.m. after the game and a ride back to Rochester. I couldn't believe that Maddie talked with her brothers almost the whole way home and was still going strong. It must have been all of the sugar she had at the game. Cotton candy, snow cone and ice cream were just a few of her choices. I think she is a little like her mother and enjoyed all of the food at the game.
