Trip to Aurora May - Third Day


Brady and Brock waiting for The Avengers.
Woke up to a chilly and rainy day here on the edge of the prairie!  We thought Brock might have been invited to help out another soccer team in goal but that didn't materialize.  Eileen had drive to Indianapolis for the graduation of her niece and godchild, May Bridget, from Butler University--you Jayhawk fans will remember Butler.  We just stayed around the house till late morning when we went to see The Avengers.  We went to an 11:00 show and with the popularity of the Marvel franchise and the crummy weather, it was almost full.  I had used Fandango for tickets for the first time and was glad I did.  This of course prompted a call from my credit card company where I have an automatic internet purchase alert for the card I use for travel.  Glad to see they are on their toes.

We got home after the movie, had some lunch and watched the Players Championship hoping to see Tiger make a move which he didn't.  On the other hand Kevin Na certainly did.  In fact, he makes a lot of moves on the tee box.  Looks like a nervous wreck and an absolute mess and then puts it right where was aiming.  Should be an entertaining final round.  Perfect way to spend Mother's Day, right?

Both Brock and Braden had soccer matches starting at 6:00.  It had now gotten colder, started to rain a little and the seemingly ever present wind strengthen.  Lovely spectator weather.  I got a lot of nice sequence shots of Braden who scored a goal and had several nifty moves through the game.  Goals I understand; all those nifty moves are a bit beyond my untutored knowledge of the game.  Her team won the game handily and she had a lot of fun.  She plays hard and well.


There was some comic relief after the game as Brock arrived from his game on another field.  Brady who is so patient attending his brother's and sister's matches began a little horseplay with Brock.  Take a look.
