This morning, after Rachel and I had woken up but hadn't really gotten up, the boys came in our room. They had fun climbing over top of us and jumping on the bed.
We went downstairs and I made pancakes and bacon, while Rachel cut up fruit. The boys ate well.
We just hung around the house. Rachel trimmed the boys hair while I did some work.
For my birthday, Rachel had gotten us tickets to see the Round Rock Express. She found them on Craigslist and got us front row tickets just to the left of home plate, though still behind the net. The seats were amazing. I'd say we were 20 or 30 feet from home plate.
Before we went to the game, we stopped at Logan's for dinner. We figured we'd have an early dinner rather than paying ballpark prices. The boys both ate very well at Logan's. They had snow crab on the menu so Evan ate snow crab. My steak was pretty good. Rachel also got crab.
The boys had lots of questions about the game since they could see it so well. We stayed the whole game and really only missed a half an inning while we walked around and got them frozen lemonade. In the bottom of the ninth a player fouled a ball very hard over the net and it hit near the press box and came down. I reached as high as I could but only touched the ball. The ball bounced to the lady next to us. She gave the ball to Evan. He was incredibly happy about it. He had brought his glove to the game and had been talking about a foul ball the whole time. The game ended two batters later. Since we were sitting so close we walked over to the dugout and two players signed the ball.
There was a concert at the field after the game. They allowed everyone in the outfield. The boys ran back and forth across the outfield over and over. Evan pretended running back to catch a ball and leaping up and hitting the outfield wall. He made me race him over and over again as well. Noah was just happy running.
We came home late and the boys went right to sleep.
Until next time...
