HOMECOMING

Today, is my first time ever going to a homecoming game. Of course at DU it is hockey, not
football. I have never been to a hockey game so I am kind of excited. I think it will be fun.

I am playing in the Pep Band. There are three keyboardists, (odd I know to have a keyboardist in a band) so we will all be switching off on that, tambourine, and (Da Da Dada!) cowbell. Last practice, the instructor pulled out the extra instruments and I was all excited to play cowbell. But man that thing is loud and cutting! It makes me a little nervous. There is a reason I am not a percussionist….. Loud and obnoxious is not exactly my thing. I think it will be easier to play during the game when the crowd is being loud and obnoxious. We will see.

Meanwhile I am already in my uniform. Finish up homework and off to “work”.

Who are we?

Brendan- Graduated from Colorado University in 2008 with a Bachelor of Business. He then got a job right out of college for a company called Siemens. He and Hannah moved to Florida in 2009 for a year of training as a power plant engineer. Now he travels every Spring and Fall to different power plants and works as a manager during maintenance work. Right now he is Phoenix, Az. until the end of October. In his spare time, Brendan enjoys learning Spanish, reading (just finished the whole Sherlock Holmes series), learning guitar, working on cars/motorcycles and skyping with Hannah.

Hannah- Is at the University of Denver finishing up her Bachelors of Music Composition. She is a part of the Women’s Choral, North Indian Classical Ensemble and Pep Band. Along with loving to play the piano and composing she also enjoys scrapbooking, making cards, graphic design, cooking/baking, animals, and spending time with friends.

Brendan and Hannah as a couple love animals. They have three cats and two dogs. They are considering either fostering animals for adoption events or doing a ministry with their dog(s) at children’s hospitals or senior citizen homes. They love traveling and seeing many different places and have made it a tradition to go to the zoo at every place they travel to. Their hope is to save for a Europe trip in a couple summers.
