Peanuts and Cracker Jacks

As I mentioned in my last post, this summer has been jam-packed! Back in June Ben's aunt and uncle stopped in Utah on their annual trek from Concord, CA to Syracuse, NY. We were able to meet up with them, Ben's brother and several of his cousins at a baseball game one night. We realized that between Ben's busy work schedule and the annoying amount of rain we've gotten this year, that was our first ball game of the summer. Usually by June we've been to a dozen or two games. The kids both loved going and lasted all 9 innings (Ben hates leaving any kind of game early!). 

It rained a little bit right before we left for the game so Kiara seized the opportunity to wear her old raincoat (which is 3 sizes too small!) and take her Princess umbrella.
I'm so smitten with this little boy!
Kiara was so excited to get in the ballpark and see a lady doing balloon animals. She, of course, chose a ballerina! She always does that cheesy grin with her top lip tucked under when I tell her to look at the camera!
Boston loved the treats Uncle Bill and Aunt Debbie got for us! This cup of ice kept him entertained for a good half hour!
When we lived in CA we were only 45 minutes from Bill and Deb and we loved getting together with them. They have always been so generous and loving with us and our kids and we miss seeing them on a regular basis. Kiara loves Aunt Debbie!
We were hoping to go see them at their lake house in NY while we were back east last month but it didn't work out. Hopefully we'll catch them on their way back west in September.

I think the Bees games are very fun. We normally would have gone to a game before now. Cute pictures.
