Mariners and Mothers

After church on Mother's Day we took the kids into downtown Seattle for a Seattle Mariners/Chicago White Sox game at Safeco Field. We had a good time at the ballgame, although I wouldn't say it was relaxing with the potty breaks, need for more snacks, and inability to sit still. The kids were so happy with their hot dogs, cracker jacks and cotton candy snacks, loved watching all the people (especially the vendors that walk through the stands), and boogying to the music over the loud speaker. We learned our lesson with Emilio though and will never get him cotton candy again! He got a sugar high and was obnoxious, even gathering popcorn (that wasn't ours!) from the floor and eatting it! Goodness, are kids humbling or what? It was a fun new experience though and I think they will grow into it more and more.
It was also cool to recognize some of the White Sox players that we rooted for when they won the World Series a few years ago.




Obviously someone didn't want to be in the picture.
