Take me out....


...to the ball game!!!
Aunt Susan got us super cheap tickets to go to a game last night bc her work was selling discount tickets and she knew it was something we wanted to do with the kids this summer! Thanks for the hookup SuzyQ!

The kids were excited bc they knew the mascot from Relay for Life 2010...they got to meet him and hug him then...

And we were excited to have kids finally old enough to maybe make it through part of a game!

The kids enjoyed seeing all the mascots and little side games they did...shooting t-shirts at the crowd, sumo wrestlers, seeing Nutzy and Zinger dance...they didn't watch the game so much... :)

Distracting Carter with a free magazine we got when we entered...

The kids really enjoyed the hotdogs, curly fries, and large pink lemonade we got them for dinner...that was the main event for them I think...eating and sharing a drink in a HUGE flimsy cup with no straw or lid...now that was a sport for us to watch and ref as the parents...

They got really excited when Nutzy come out...Carter was obsessed with looking at the little comic about him in the free book we got...We tried walking around to find him 2xs during the game...once during the 4th inning and then before we left...but he wasn't where he was supposed to be at those times...SADness!

Oh well! That Nutzy...he's an elusive one! We had a great time watching our first game together!

It was fun seeing you and your friends Aunt Susan!!! Even though by the time y'all got there it was almost time for us to head out...Can't believe our kids made it til 9pm!!! Thanks again for the tickets! :)

We were there, too- but on the complete opposite side- by 1st base! We loved it but could only handle about 1.5 hours....
