Field of Dreams

Last weekend I got a text from a friend asking if wanted to go to a ball game over the weekend. Since it has been ridiculously not-even-like-summer nice here and there was nothing going on, we drove out and met Kim for a Sunday afternoon game.

We had a great time sitting on the outfield berm and playing, watching the baseball guys. Parker would sit for an entire game. Payton is not so interested. They did really well and made it through the 5th inning when we decided not to push our luck and wander around the park and make our way out.

On the way out, we got to the bullpen and Kim and Parker walked down to the fence and were talking to some of the guys from the Sacramento River Cats. One of the pitchers of them team was down there and he got up, dug around in his bag, and handed Parker a baseball through the fence. Parker has shown everyone he can think of, taken it to school to show off, and slept with it. Thanks guys - you made his month!

And to carry on with his baseball theme, at lunch yesterday, he was totally quiet. He ate his cheeseburger and watch the little league world series on the t.v. up on the wall. He was happy as can be. I'm seeing some t-ball in my future next summer. :)
