Let's Go Yankees!

As a last day of Kindergarten surprise, we took the kids up to see the Yankee game in Oakland.  We didn't tell them that we had any plans after Luke's last day of school.  They were so excited to go out to lunch and then meet up with Daddy (who took half of the day off of work) to see the Yankee game.

It was a gorgeous day and we had a great time.  The game went into (many) extra innings, and the kids were so into it that they wanted to stay.

However, their love for sporting events still heavily relies on cotton candy!

First Yankee Game

We took Luke to his first ever real baseball game yesterday. Of course, we couldn't see just any old team for his first game, it had to be the Yankees! Daddy bought tickets quite a long time ago when we knew that they would be in town playing the A's.

Our favorite A's fans, the Moore family, joined us for tailgating, the ballgame, and an evening of watching the Yankees WIN :).

Luke had fun, but didn't understand at first why we were sitting down ... he wanted to get out there and PLAY some baseball. Once the treats started rolling in, he was happy to be a wild man in the stands.

Aidan was so cute. He started the night telling me that he couldn't hug me because I was a Yankees fan, but ended it walking out of the stadium and saying, "Well, the Yankees ARE my 2nd favorite team." Too cute - love him!

Buddies in opposing gear:

"Go Yankees!"

"JETER!"

The cotton candy has kicked in!
