End Of Summer Surprise

 


The Los Angeles Angels

After such a hard summer full of growth, we decided to surprise the boys with a baseball game.  The Angels (my favorite team).  One of the perks of my husbands job is getting these free tickets to professional sports every now and then.  The boys love baseball, so this was the perfect gift to end the summer.

I don't know about you, but we can hardly finish the whole ball game with kids under the age of 11.  We usually make it to the 7th inning (full strength), but then peter-out by the 8th.  So, we usually beat the crowd and come home early.  I guess it would be different if we actually bought the tickets.  In any case, we enjoyed ourselves.  The baby sister stayed home with grandma while we ate pretzels, cracker jacks, and ice cream sandwiches.  So fun!

On this particular night, three silver medalist sat near us from the Olympics Water Polo team  (Shhh... I enjoyed that).  It was a bit distracting having everyone come over for photos and such, but the boys loved it.  So to see the medals and to see how proud these men boys were to win them, it was something.  It added to the night and made great memories!  Sorry no photos.  My hubby wouldn't let me (lol).

Anyway, for more show and tell - please visit canadagirl.  She has something fun to share with you, too!
