Take Me Out to the Ball Game


Monday, March 31 was opening day at Dodger Stadium. The beginning of their 50th anniversary season in LA and the start of the Joe Torre era. It was a great day for my boys to enjoy something really special together - and one they've been counting down for a long, long time. They had a blast, the weather was perfect and the Dodgers stuffed the Giants 5-0. The boys also stuffed on popcorn, ice cream, cotton candy, cokes, apples and of course Dodger Dogs. Colin quickly grasped the concept of 3 outs each, foul ball, CHAAAARGE (his favorite), "Take Me Out To The Ball Game..." and the Wave. He actually said as it was going - "Hey look, that looks like a wave!" Who knew? It's the beginning of a new tradition, a great season and a fun filled summer of baseball. What more could you possibly ask for? We like it here in sunny CA. We like it a lot!
