great game... all 15 innings...

my good friend tom called me last night about 9:oo to ask if i could use tickets to today's mariner/tigers game at safeco field... without hesitation... i said yes... so my boys noah, ethan and my dad(papa) went with me to a 1:10 afternoon start on a perfect seattle day...

noah needed a new ballcap... so we found one... then we took this picture cause it had a seattle seahawks logo on it... he does look good in the new hat though... dont you agree...









here grandpa and ethan enjoy some yummy safeco food during the game... ethan set out to have all the food on his list... his "list" of food included: popcorn, cotton candy, dippin dots, and soda pop... we did a great job at filling his requests by the sixth inning... and he was very happy...

at that point we didnt realize that the game was only 2/5ths over... it went 15 innings... we even got to sing "take me out to the ballgame" twice (middle of the seventh and the middle of the fourteenth) something i had never done before...


unfortunately the m's came up a little short and they lost... 2 - 1... but we had a great time anyways...

thanks for going papa and we cant wait to do it again soon...

Favorite part of the game...catcher for the pitcher. Funny! And Ichiro's catch in the 15th inning-he's amazing!

PS-Noah, Hat? What hat? I couldn't see it. Get it? Camouflage...tee hee.

Sorry Candace! We were over on Anderson Island this last weekend, and then yesterday started our week of VBS at church. I'll get a new post done soon ... or better yet, I'll let Mark know you're requesting a new one :-)
