Take me out to the ballgame!

Today we spent the afternoon at the ballgame. Our friend Don was kind enough to invite us along to the daytime game at Isotopes park to see them play the New Orleans Zephyrs.

It was a hot (89degF) sunny day. It was crazy busy at the game as it was the School Day matinee game which is where school kids from all over Albuquerque and Central New Mexico come along.
We took Scarlett and Mackenzie along to the game and our friend Stacy joined us with her little girl Gabby (who is Mac's BFF!).
It was Scarlett's first ever baseball game and she enjoyed being outside with lots to see but was soon feeling sleepy after spending a couple of hours in the summer heat.
We all had a fun afternoon which ended with Gabby and Mackenzie running the bases on the field......howevcr, they decided to run the opposite way to the rest of the kids!

Here is Ms Mac taking the quickest route from A to B as she "runs the bases"

Gabby and Mac were all tired out after spending the afternoon in the sun and running the bases.

Woo hoo......early bed tonight

Kenny with Scarlett in the best seat in the house!

The "real" Orbit is too scary.....so this almost lifesize bobblehead is as close as the girls like to get to him.

By the way.....the 'Topes won!.......but that didn't seem to matter :-)
