We had the privilege of going to see Trenton for his birthday early yesterday and going to watch one of his favorite teams - the Chicago Blackhawks! This was a generous gift from Uncle Dave for his 21st. Little did we know that a winter storm system would move in the same time we would be leaving. Our normal 2 hour drive to Naperville took 4 1/2 hours! It was rough. We wanted to get there an hour early to walk around and also to see the whole pregame deal but just couldn't do it. Guess we will have to make another game to check all that stuff out. We grabbed Trenton around 8:45 pm (game started at 9pm) and headed for the United Center. Missed the first period and the Hawks were up 2-0. I was mostly astounded by how large the Unted Center was...and the seating...steap. It was pretty awesome. A positive was that we were able to actually see the Hawks score and the crowd went wild. Blackhawks ended up winning 3-1. We were home and in bed by 4 am ;) Had a good "quick" trip to see our boy who will be 21 on Tuesday. Still can't believe it. Thanks Dave, for taking us - had a great time!!!! Let's catch another game though...in it's entirety!!!!
