Take Me Out to the Ballgame!!

On Tuesday night we took the boys to the baseball game. The Diamondbacks v Pittsburgh Pirates
Evan has been asking to go to the baseball game for a few weeks now and he wants to wear a baseball shirt everyday so we were so excited for them to go to the game!!

Daddy and his boys
I was so excited to go to the game with them since I was a big St. Louis Cardinals fan and started going to games when I was 5 years old
watching the players warm up
We got awesome seats right near the visitor dugout 

having fun!!
I didn't get a picture of us but we were on the big jumbotron before the game started. Alex kept saying he wanted to be on tv again....LOL!!
there were 2 men sitting behind us and one of them was wearing a Pirates jersey.  He kept yelling at the players to toss him a ball as they were walking to the dugout. Finally a player did and the man gave the ball to Alex!!  We can't thank him enough for making the game so special for Alex!

The guys behind us kept saying we just need one more ball for Evan.  Sure enough a foul ball was hit in the first inning and the man behind us caught it and gave it to Evan.  Here he is with his baseball... he wouldn't let anyone look at it!
Wes seemed to have a smile on his face the whole game....what a proud daddy!
cheering on the home team


Alex's baseball was signed by Pedro Alvarez. He actually hit a homerun for the Pirates during the game
enjoying the game with Daddy
Evan loved these characters that came out at the top of the 6th inning.  When he couldn't see them anymore he kept saying "where did those guys go mommy??"
