Ian at the Timberwolves Game (Ian, Pictures, Video)

We had an incredible time this evening at the Timberwolves game. The pictures and video do it more justice than I can with words:

During the warm-up, Ian and his friend Aaron go to meet a few of the players. Here, the boys get to talk with Ryan Gomes


Before the game, we were able to have our picture taken with Ryan. In the front is Aaron and Ian. In the back row are Tom, Deb, Ryan Gomes, and Mr. & Mrs. Bassiere. Mr. Bassiere is Ian's physical education teacher, who wrote in a letter to a local radio station and made this possible.


This shows where our seats were. The two little blue caps are Ian and Aaron.


The Timberwolves gave Ian a prize bag. This included a pair of size 18 shoes. He's have to grow into them...


Al Jefferson making a free throw


During a time-out, Ian got to hold the game ball.



Ian and his buddy Aaron were allowed to give the starting T-Wolves high-fives as they were introduced:






We want to send out a huge "Thank You" to Laura Kellison and John O'Connell at the Minnesota Timberwolves for their hospitality and generosity. You gave us an evening that we will remember for the rest of our lives, and made a basketball fan out of Ian.
