Pacific Northwest Pipe Band Competition

The Pacific Northwest Pipe Band Competition was a blast!
The weather in Enumclaw, WA was awesome. In the morning there was a low mist that covered the hills and kept it cool until afternoon. Perfect for drumming....not so much for bagpipes though.
We took 3rd place both days. The first day we actually tied for 2nd but got defaulted to 3rd based on our ensemble score. Anyway, it was rockin' and here are some pictures from it! Good Times! Enjoy.

What else would you do at 4 am except pretend you are gnomes?

We went to a japanes restaurant the first night. It was rather tasty!

Best use for chopsticks is for drumming.

I made everyone eat their whole meal with only chopsticks. I confiscated forks.

This huge boat was filled with Sushi. It was devoured by these 3 people....and Max.

Max ate all the garnish from the Sushi Boat

Tha infamous "Try Me" toilet found at your local asian mall. We had to initiate Vivian for her first trip to Enumclaw.

Classic Jill.

Vrrrroooooom!

We had the traditional nail painting party on Friday but this time did my toes all sparkley! I look like I have old granny legs. :)

Getting ready in the morning is a blast when you are singing along to the musical Wicked.

The games were awesome as usual. Always lots of amazing bands to watch.

This is pretty much the scene. My band drooling over their food while watching Simon Fraser University (the world champions)....or are they drooling over SFU? :D

We went to Duke's Chowder House for dinner on Saturday. Highly Recommended (a little pricey though.)

Jill and I playing finger chess while waitng for our food. Mmmmm......soooo tasty!

Seafood? Gahaa. That never stops being funny.

Jill and her shrimp lips.

Later, back at the hotel....

This is my gaurdian angel...no wondered I am still scared of the dark.

The fun is over. :( Time to go back home.

After a 14 hour car drive it's nice to just lay on the grass.....while we wait for our stuff stashed in a trailer that broke down. :D

Me and crazy Jill
