Make A Wish Sounders Night

WARNING: There are lots of pictures and they do not include cute little kids. 

Our friends, Mike & Heather, invited us to a Make-A-Wish dinner with the Sounders.  They invited 50 of their soccer/Sounder loving friends and we were honored to be part of it.   We had such a fun time!

Six of the Sounders players came to be our servers/waiters for the evening.  It was entertaining watching them as they tried to serve us appetizers, refill our glasses and bring us our food.  We hope they stick to playing soccer, for everyone's sake.

By the end of the evening Carolyn had acquired Mike's phone number so that she could get passes into the locker room for the next home game.   She baked one dozen cookies for each player and two dozen cookies for Mike after the Sounders won their home game 3 - 0.    

Brad & Pat Noonan (Sounders) He was the waiter at our table and kept Brad's beer very full.   I had to drive home.

We had such a great night!  We have so much fun watching the Sounders and going to as many games as we can.  We are big dorks but it is a lot of fun enjoying things like this together. 

Thanks Mike & Heather!
