Super Bowl XLVIII Champs !

The Seattle Seahawks crushed the Denver Broncos in Super Bown XLVIII 43-8 to cap a great season and win their first NFL championship.

In November we watched the Seahawks beat the Buccaneers at Century Link Field:






On the Wednesday after the Super Bowl the city held a parade for the Seahawks. An estimated 700,000 people converged upon downtown. Dad took the boys down to cheer on the local heroes. It was very cold!

Each position had humvees with the players riding 



Boys Trip to Oregon Coast

In early November Dad took the boys to stay at a house on the Oregon Coast for a long weekend. We stayed right on the ocean, though it was up on a cliff so we needed to walk down the block to get beach access. We played football on the beach and saw some beautiful sunsets. We also got to see the world's shortest river - the "D River" which runs 440 feet from a lake to the ocean.
