Family Night at the Bee's Game!

We have been planning on going to a Bee's Baseball game all summer long, but we have been very busy! So we finally made it to the Bee's game for Family Night! It was a perfect night for a baseball game! It was fun eating hot-dogs and nachos! The kids loved the family outing! Mara asked if we could get ice-cream and I told her probably not since we had done dinner instead. We decided to go for a walk around the stadium and as we were standing there a man came up and asked Mara if she would be willing to participate in the next activity down on the field! She was a little nervous and apprehensive but she did it!

So here is Mara down on the Bee's Field with Tony, the announcer! (Nate recognized him from his morning sport radio show!) 

Mara said it was a little scary being down on the field with all the players, but she did a great job and said it was fun! 

So the game Mara participated in Tony asked each side of the crowd to cheer and Mara had to choose which side cheered the loudest! 

Mara, The Bee and Tony listening to the crowd cheer! 

I cheered so loud! I felt like yelling "That's my daughter down there!!" But I didn't! Mara pointed to the loudest side and for participating she received a Bee's frisbee which had a coupon on it for a free ice-cream cone! 

Mara was even up on the jumbo-tron! Pretty exciting!! Way to go Mara!! Talk about being at the right place at the right time! We just so happened to be walking by when Tony was looking for a participant!

And Mara got her wish! A HUGE ice-cream cone! She did share with her family!  

Caleb loved the Bee's game, especially playing the game: "hit or miss?!" Before each batter hit we would say 'hit or miss?' and we would guess if the player was going to hit the ball or miss it! It was really funny to play with Caleb!

 

Carder also loved the game! He thought it was so fun cheering for the baseball players! He especially loved eating the ice-cream and playing at the playground! 

 Love these kiddos of mine! They are so fun to be with! It was a fun night being together as a family! We can't wait to go back to another baseball game!
