Take Me Out to the Ballgame...

Saturday we took Jackson to his first Brewers game. It started off as a beautiful day and the stadium roof was open. We packed a light lunch and had a little picnic before going in, (we had to save room for ballpark junk food). We found a playground up on the Terrace level where we were sitting and stopped to play for awhile. Then we got some ice cream and headed for our seats. We were in the first row of the top level and right next to Bernie Brewer's Clubhouse. Jackson loved that! He loves characters. He did pretty well and sat thru the first few innings. We probably made it to the fourth (and the Brewer's were already down 0-4), so we went to tour the stadium and find the kid zones. Jackson raced a cut-out of Corey Hart and then pedal raced cut-out sausages, his Brat won. :) He threw a few balls, he needs a bit more practice if he's gonna be a pitcher and then we went back up to play at the playground again before calling it a day. When asked what his favorite part was he said "eating a hotdog". The Brewers lost but it was a fun family day. We love going to Miller Park but would like to see at least one win. Brandon and I are going back next month to see the them play the Braves. We are keeping our fingers crossed.

Seriously...how fun! I never would have thought they had a kids area. Makes me want to go to a game. Tyler would have blast but I know he couldn't sit through the whole game. Awesome pictures!
