Last weekend, Daddy's work had a company event at the Sacramento Rivercats baseball game, (a local Triple A affiliate of the Oakland A's). We have been attending for the past several years, but the kids just now are old enough to begin enjoying the game and great treats! Like their favorite, cotton candy! A night is never complete without kids full of a bag of the colorful spun sugar.
Amanda's favorite is blue!
Natalie's is pink!
And Will loves them both!
Ever since Natalie's episode with the Easter Bunny several years ago, she does not like people dressed in costumes. This includes the Chick-fil-a cow, the gorilla we saw at Halloween, Dinger (the Rivercat Mascot), or these wonderful full-sized bobble head creature below...who can guess who it is?
Will and Amanda have no trouble with the costumes and ran halfway around to park to have their photo taken with the former governator!
The biggest highlight of the evening, however, was the fireworks display. In previous trips to the ballpark, the kids have been too young to stay until the end. This year, the timing was perfect. The game was relatively quick, it was the first time the kids would have a chance to see a "real" fireworks display and the Rivercats had one of the best fireworks displays of the season! What a triple play! Will was giggling, smiling and jumping up and down during the entire show! You can only see a small part of his excitement in this photo, but as you can clearly see, he thoroughly enjoyed himself!
