Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Miami Heat Game

Trip to Minnesota

To celebrate Ryan's 10th Birthday, Daddy took him and his friend Coleton to the Minnesota Timberwolves vs. Miami Heat game in Minneapolis on Friday night.

Ryan said it was "The best experience of my life!!". It was a Great game and they had a blast!

Here's the view coming into town.

Ryan & Coleton with their Timberwolves basketballs.

Love at the free throw line.

It was a super close game as you can see.

Ending score was 103 Miami, 101 Minnesota.

View from their seats.

LeBron James

LeBron - It was LeBron's 27th birthday. Happy Birthday Ryan & LeBron!

Dwayne Wade

Best part of all - They got there early and were 1st in line to get in and were able to go courtside and watch the players warm up!! Ryan (and his dad) were pretty excited about being this close!!

Here's #31 Shane Battier warming up. They were only a few feet from him!

Great picture Ryan!!

The guy in black used to be a Laker and played when they won the championship with Magic Johnson. (according to daddy)

Here's Juwan Howard! He's daddy's age...

This white guy is 7'2" tall. The boys were amazed at how big he was up close.

Coleton and Ryan on the court! Mark said Ryan was so excited he could hardly speak.

Fun Times!! Mom and Ashley were at her Hoopla tournament in Omaha, next time we get to go!
