Take Me Out To the Ballgame!!

This summer, we've gone to a total of 4 Kane County Cougars minor league baseball games. Let me tell you -- if you are looking for some good family-friendly fun -- try a minor league baseball game in your area! We watched fireworks after every game, good ball park food (plus, we sneak some snacks in there sometimes) and in-between inning fun! Payton LOVES to go to the ballgames!!!



Here, we rode the tram to the game -- this time, we went with a group from my work -- we rent out one of the picnic decks at work and we can bring friends & family to the game -- we brought Grammy & Papa Bill, Brian and Trina & the daycare-family.


Holly, Bradley & Jeffrey with their new Cougar shirts!


Best Buddies!!


Payton did NOT want to get her picture take with "Ozzie" the Cougar, but afterwards, she told everyone, "I got my picture taken with Ozzie -- see!" "I like Ozzie"


After the game (9:30PM!) and fireworks (10PM) , the 'big' kids went to run the bases . Payton orginially said she didn't want to go, but then once she saw the kids down there, she changed her mind -- imagine that! So, we had to wait in a long line of kids and finally got to the front of the line...


Running around the bases....what fun!

I love the picture running the bases, she looks so tiny and cute!

Thanks for your comment about my pictures. I got the worn/inked edges from shabbyprincess.com. She has tons of freebies, and they are great. I use photoshop, but I imagine they would be easy to use with any photo editing software. give it a try, it's fun!
