Spring Break! Dodgers Opening Day

I've been so looking forward to a break! (Remember last month when I was so happy to be home for a while?!) A month later and now I'm ready to be warm! Plus we were going on a quick trip--not a long haul and staying with family which feels more like home-away-from-home.

We planned to go to Phoenix for Spring Break because Marty and EC had just moved there (in November) and we wanted to spend time with them in their new home. It's pretty sad how fast things change. We thought we'd be spending the break with both of them and then suddenly Marty passed away. I'm not sure what else to say about that. It's just sad.

But how glad we were we did have a trip planned to Phoenix so we could be with EC in her new home!

We also originally thought we'd go to Spring Training Baseball while there. But when it came time to book some games, we realized spring training would have just ended! So instead...

Day 1 -- Dodgers Opening Day in LA!
We flew to LA Thursday morning and drove straight to where we always go: Korean BBQ in Koreatown. I would tell you the name of the place but it's about 26 letters long and we have no idea what it is. We just know how to get there.

We sent this photo to Marty and he said we have the exact same photo of he and Chris!

I love him.

Then we went to the shoe store (like we always do) and bought tennis shoes for Chris and Nick.

And then onto the game! A beautiful afternoon game. Hot -- almost really hot. Dodgers played the Giants but sadly couldn't get the W. Not a ton of action at 0-1. But we loved it anyway! (Did you know several of the players are Courtney's age?! What?! They are so young!)

Kershaw pitched, so that was Awesome.


Because it says "Dodgertown"
Wearing their rally caps. 

We stayed at a hotel near the airport so we were close for our flight to Phoenix the next day.
