Take Me Out to the Ballgame....

take me out to the crowd, buy me some peanuts......okay forget the peanuts....buy me some hotdogs, french fries, pop, a blue slushie, a footlong bag of popcorn and a twist ice cream topped with sprinkles! Believe it or not, most of that was consumed in the first few innings of the Whitecaps baseball on Saturday night. Not by Kev or myself, but by Koby and Ky. Unbelievable!!!! We have found that the way to our kids hearts is definitely through the mouth!

We went to Superhero night at the ballpark in hopes of spotting some of our favorites i.e. Spiderman, Batman, Superman.....but left a bit unsatisfied having only spotted Underdog (anyone remember him?), Captain America, Wolverine, and Robin (who was really a female disguised quite poorly). Koby was very upset that Spidey was no where to be found. In my attempt to make him feel better, I explained that perhaps there were people in need elsewhere that Spidey needed to attend to. He bought it. The boys had to settle for a photo op with Crash, the mascot for the Whitecaps. Ky was too busy inhaling his food to even contemplate the whereabouts of anyone. So Crash was their superhero for the night!





The game ended with a fabulous fireworks display that, in the end, really was the highlight of the night for the boys.


Today we had a BBQ with the Hillbilles and christened the pool. We have been anxiously awaiting our first swim and were excited to see a weather forecast of 80 and sunny for today. In the end, today was not 80 degrees or sunny. I would say more like low to mid 70's and overcast. Thank goodness for heaters! We cranked up the heat and got the pool to 75. As you can see from the pics, only a few were brave enough to take the plunge!
