Last weekend the kids and I went to a Columbus Blue Jackets hockey game since it was Scout Day. The Blue Jackets played the Chicago Blackhawks.

The Blackhawks took the lead in the first period and Columbus came from behind during the second period. Unfortunately for the home team it wasn't enough. The division-leading Blackhawks ended up the winners with a score of 6-5.
After the game we were among a small group of lucky fans that got to meet one of the players. We were escorted to the press room where we waited for about a half hour. Then forward R.J. Umberger (seen in the action photo at top) came to greet us and sign autographs.That was a nice treat after a tough loss.

I took pictures of the game too but this one's much better than mine since we were in the nosebleed section!
