Take Me Out

Last night we took the boys to their first baseball game. I can't believe it's taken us 3 years to get Jack to game. He's been to a PBR Rodeo but not a baseball game til now. We went to San Jose to see the single A farm team for the San Fran Giants. It was a lot of fun! The boys had a blast! There was a family fun zone with blow up bouncy houses and slides and a bunch of games for the kids. It wasn't crowded so Jack really loved that part. :-) His other favorite was the gorilla mascot, Gigante. He followed that thing all over the ball park for the whole game. He watched a little of the game while he was enjoying a big red slurpee. Ty also had a great time. Mainly he was into people watching, he made friends with everyone around us and waved to every airplane that flew over (we were 5 minutes away from the San Jose airport so basically 1 plane every 10 minutes.)
This night at the baseball game was exciting to me because we're huge fans of farm team baseball games. When Tom was at OBC in Ft. Knox years ago we went to the Louisville farm team games. Now that we're going to be calling Ft. Knox home soon, I can't wait to take the boys to those games. Also, back in PA we were 30 mins away from the Reading Philies. I have many great memories of hanging out at those games with Tom while we were dating and friends from home. Who wouldn't enjoy cheap beer, ice cream in a mini baseball helmet, good baseball, diving for t-shirts being shot from a t-shirt cannon and hanging out with friends? You can't help but have a good time when you go there. I'm excited to share that with Jack and Ty.


Jack being a rebel....we didn't have tickets for those seats.



Ty doing what he does best....snacking.

That crazy gorilla


The infamous McMurtrie Family face for pictures....don't worry Ty, you'll get it soon enough!
