Happy Birthday, America!

After some thought about how to celebrate Independence Day, we decided to celebrate a day early at the ball park.  
 It was hot and dry (if you count 95% humidity as "dry" ;)), so this game was a go!  We dressed in red, white and blue and got ready to watch some baseball!

 Paige fell asleep on the ride to the game and so she missed the first couple of innings.  (Trust me, a 98 degree human on your lap makes things much cooler.)


 Cute, cute kids!  They loved the ball game and they loved getting some great ball game food!

Paige woke up and had fun, too!

 It was pretty hot at first, but not as bad as I'd feared.  And it cooled off really nicely as the sun went down.  The game was great and the activities between innings kept us laughing and cheering.


We loved this game of catapulting rubber chickens onto the field for this guy to catch in his basket.

We ended the game with a win, which we loved and then settled in for an awesome fireworks display!


Oh Yeah!!!

I think we all agreed that it was the perfect 4th of July celebration.  I think we're all wanting to make this a yearly tradition!

Happy Birthday, America!
