take me out to the ball game.

2 friday's ago finn experienced his first baseball game. i was dragged against my will. i am not a baseball fan, but have gone occasionally if coerced & given a suduko puzzle to keep me occupied. but i must say- this game delivered. big time. our good friend rachel was in town & marissa & darren also joined the festivities.

we went to the angel's stadium.

we bought scalper tickets out front- because it was nearly sold out. everyone else had the same idea. it was the only in town game & a fabulous day. our $16 got us in to "the party" on the patio. we get off the elevator & when asked if we're with the party we say, yep. & there it is... free food: veggie burgers or brats, sodas & cookies. YUM! this is my kind of game. beer wasn't free, but still it's hard to complain. i totally ate $16 worth of food! finn had puffs & strawberries. he loved em!

this was a major bonding experience for the boys. bryan played freshmen year in highschool. here's dada explaining the game.

intently watching. one of the guys- totally stole it from being hit over the fence. i'll admit that was exciting.
look at our boy... he kept that hat on for 5 seconds. but it was cute.
darren blowing bubbles...
me & rach & finn!
we tailgated afterwards. here's marissa tempting finn with more puffs & rachel blowing some bubbles, but it was uphill & finn wasn't budging.

i love this one that rachel snagged!

well, hell may freeze over. i enjoyed a baseball game. i said it. i admit it. & i'm pretty sure it'll never happen again :)
