Baseball!!!

On Friday night we had our 2nd annual company baseball game. There were three bus loads plus plenty of independent drivers that went from Express Seed Company and Green Circle Growers. The kids thought the bus was extremely cool! When we got there we all gathered to eat, and a nice lady gave me the small pennant flags you see sticking out of the kid's hats. They thought those were cool too! (Bet you couldn't have guessed that!)

To our kids any time spent with their cousins is something to get excited about, but Friday they were at a place that they were allowed to scream as loud as they wanted.

I don't know how much of the game they actually watched (except T.J.) They were too busy being frustrated that no one else was doing the wave with them.

Our seats were right next to the bullpen, which they loved leaning over and looking into.

The 7th inning proved interesting when a huge brawl broke out on the field, we sat in the stands trying to figure out what was going one, while I'm sure everyone at home had full commentary on it all, either on T.V. or radio. For us we just had displays on the board telling us there would be fireworks after the game.

We entered the 8th inning three runs down, but someone (forgive me, I don't know who...) hit a three run homerun. The ball bounced about 4 rows ahead of us and landed in the bullpen. The men down there were kind enough to throw it up, and guess who caught it!!! That's right, good ole lefty with the bright red cast!!! It made his night! (not to mention they handed out bobble heads at the entrance - that Mom got to carry around all night).

Kayte had a great time, but didn't make it all the way through the game. She did wake up in time for the fireworks though.
