Little League Night @ the Ballpark!

**I know, I know...two posts in one day, it MUST be an April Fools joke?!  And real pictures too?!  Shocking!  Have a busy week ahead of us, so don't get used to this!**

 Last night we headed to Goodyear Ballpark for Little League Night!

 We all wore matching t-shirts {Lola's was jazzed up a little, couldn't help myself!  Click here to see how I did it} and got to go out onto the field for the little league pledge - don't feel bad, I didn't know there was one either!  It was so cool to be so close to the action!  We also learned how sacred the grass on those fields are, mannnn, they kept reminding us to stay on the dirt!

 Didn't matter though, the kids had fun!  Even if we had to wait in line for what seemed like forever!

We made our way down several flights of stairs and got to see a couple secret spots that we probably would never have been able to see before we made it to the field!  Kyan plays with a bunch of great kids, several of which he attends school with!

 

After we felt too cool for school, we headed over to center field, where my dad was saving a nice grassy spot for us!  We enjoyed the game with family and friends!  It was a perfect evening spent together!

There was lots of silly timing going on!

Cheesin' it up for the camera!

And several staring contests!

 We even tried to touch our tongues to our noses (we did this out to dinner with the Swishers a few weeks ago too, becoming a regular game with us I guess)!  Wouldn't you know that Grandpa Jerry was the only one who could make it happen?! 

After the game, the kids got to run the bases before the big fireworks show!  Lola tapped out {you'll see in a minute why} but Kyan and his buddies headed down to the field for a run around!  The dentist office that the kids go to was sponsoring the night and handed out goodie bags at third base!

 It was a LATE night, one we really weren't sure we would make it through, but the kids seriously kept begging to stay for the bases and fireworks, kinda couldn't say no!  So while Kyan ran around the bases, Lola curled up on Grandpa Jerry's lap and crashed out in about 30 seconds of snuggling him.  She slept through the entire show, thanks to grandpa holding her ears {every firework shot off was accompanied by a boomer - my favorites - but not for my sleeping princess}!  Didn't phase her one bit!

It was such a fun night, so glad my dad was here to spend it with us!  Surrounded by family and friends is the best feeling and we are lucky that we have such great people in our lives!
