Cardinal Night with the Boys!!!!
I took my boys to a Cardinals vs. Diamonbacks on Friday with tickets from my work partner, Brent. It was the first game this year that we've been to, and probably the second time that all 3 boys have been to a game together. Thomas couldn't remember the last one very well, so I think it was back in 2007. Anyway, it was a very nice game. In the 3rd inning Pujols hit his first homerun of the night. I started to cheer with my boys, then leaned over to Thomas and yelled "Wow, Thomas! That was the first homerun you'll remember, and it was Albert Pujols!" He looked at me really funny, like I was a little crazy. Later, he told me that I was yelling in his ear too loud, and that I was spitting food on him. Unfortunately, instead of the homerun, he will remember me looking like someone with too many nachos in his mouth to be cheering and yelling.
Of course, I will remember him as spilling most of the condiments of his over-sized hotdog and he devoured most of it in two minutes. The kid is a serious carnivore! We haven't had an eater like this kid. Our grocery bill is about to double compared to 3 years ago, thanks Tommy's devouring skills.
Scott was very enthusiastic until the 7th inning. Unfortunately, he also dropped ice down the back of the man in front of us while I was on the phone about an emergency patient. When I apologized, he said "That's fine, but could you tell him to stop kicking my chair?" He loved the game, but may have loved going up and down on his seat more!
I have the homerun hit on film!
