Take Me Out To The Ballgame....

Last night we went to the Charlotte Knights final Saturday home game and fireworks. I think everyone else in the Greater Charlotte area had the same idea we did. The line at the ticket window reached out to the parking lot! Tod spotted a little tent selling lawn tickets for $5....and NO LINE!! Brady was free, so we only spent $15 to go to the game. Not bad.

We found a little spot on lawn and settled in. Tod and I had a beer and the boys were able to run around. After we finished our drinks, the boys had fun playing with the plastic bottles. I was taking some funny pictures of the boys with our beer bottles when we heard, "HEADS UP!" Tod yelled, "KAT! KAT! KAT!" I looked up and here comes a foul ball! As I ducked for cover, Tod reached over and caught the foul ball with one hand and Brady on his lap! The rest of the "lawners" cheered as Jacob held up the ball for all to see. Tod said that he has gone to thousands of baseball games and never caught a foul ball. This made our night.

Pretty cool! I think that you and Tod are really liberal parents for letting the boys drink beer in public. Tyler is only allowed to drink at home.
