What a celebration! One of Mom's patients threw the first pitch at the Mariner's game today. They've been working on this for a month. (Mom thinks it's great that she got paid to play catch.) Staff Sergeant Sekora, part of an Air Force Reserve EOD unit, responded to an unexploded IED last November. That night, his carotid artery was partially severed, and he had a series of strokes the next morning. He has made a remarkable recovery. He has been selected to participate in the Warrior Games in Colorado next month, so they'll have a new goal on Monday!

Fan Club. The Mariner's lost, but the White Sox pitcher, Phil Humber, threw the 21st perfect game in modern major league history.
Elsa, Evan, and Nathan dancing between innings. We're not sure if they made it on the diamond-vision or not because we were too busy watching these cuties.

How many kids get to hug the Mariner Moose?!

Those are some very cute Mariner's fans!! Looks like a really fun outing. That's also neat you could be there to see your patient make that first pitch!
That's so much fun. Wish we could have joined you at Safeco Field! XOXO! Come to the Bay Area for a game someday!
